    things that do not cause antisocial behavior:

    • seeing millions of people die
    • seeing politicians and businessmen dismissing the deaths as nothing
    • barely any aid from the government while millions are laid off from their jobs
    • tens of millions of people getting sick and continuing with their day
    • prices for basic needs keep rising and the paycheck stays the same
    • children catching 50 different diseases before they can even count to 100
    • guns and ammo being cheaper than shoes
    • living in a country where violent solutions reign supreme
