A book is not about some apology patchup line tacked onto the end. It's about everything between the covers.
It was about disaffected youth acting out immorally because they were not given a functioning moral code? And that's what the movie showed.
- dsr_ 3y agoNot "not given a functioning moral code". Not raised by capable parents, not educated, not offered a place in a society which abandoned them. And then society used them: authoritarians can't exist without an enemy to simultaneously fear and insult; if necessary, they will make their own enemy. Those who make progress impossible make revolt inevitable.
- TacticalCoder 3y ago> Not raised by capable parents, not educated, not offered a place in a society which abandoned them. The usual complete and utter disregard of the actual victims (the woman raped, for example) and the victimization of the actual criminals (the rapist, for example). It's always been the signature of intellectuals and I believe it is the reason of many things that are wrong in society. "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing" (encourage by intellectuals, who intellectualize everything, including murder and rape)
- dsr_ 3y agoIt's interesting what you leap to accuse me of. Please read my words more carefully.
