People always say, "only the good die young." But that made me think. What if long-lived people are just more likely to do bad stuff over the course of their lives? Because everyone does good and bad stuff.
IMHO whether or not a person will ever be a domestic abuser or rapist is pretty much determined by the time they reach adulthood. It's not like a good man suddenly decides to start beating his wife or raping teenagers.
I'd be interested to see any sociological evidence supporting that theory if there is any.
Xi can point out that psychologists have looked at mental health trends in communities with slaughterhouses. When a new slaughterhouse opens and people start working there, depression, alcoholism, addiction, sleep problems, violent crime, and domestic abuse go up. Make a man do violence all day for a living, and he starts to think violence is a valid way to solve problems.
