Maybe he was just another ordinary self-loathing young adult without friends. They try to gain attention by doing things like dying their hair and getting tattoos, but they are really just trying to figure things out, and the weirdo teachers grooming kids these days instead of teaching don’t help things out. Neither do absentee parents, who aren’t getting their kids mental help when it looks like it’s needed. Another failure all around.
Or putting them on drugs when it’s NOT needed:-(
The psych profession is just as bad, if not worse than teachers. The professionals no longer believe the weird sexual issues are weird. No conversion therapy is allowed.
