She’s essentially a serial killer so I was looking into her past. Her parents were extremely over bearing, clingy and guilt trippers who were always smothering her, so I’m sure that contributed, but there’s gotta be more in her past that led her to this.
Exactly. They still can’t point to a person and say “This person will kill and this one won’t”. It seems to require a confluence of a number of things. A violent childhood, a socially stunted development, opportunity, a lack of empathy and a psychopathic mentality, an ability to compartmentalize (good family man at home, violent psycho outside of it). Even then it still isn’t a guarantee.
But that’s not helpful, it might be true in some sense but then it is for everything - would you rather wallow in hate or try to understand and prevent similar things happening in the future?
I’d like to think that someone who’s born wrong can still be “right” if they have loving and nurturing parents who get them high quality mental healthcare. It’s much nicer than having to accept it’s totally out of our control.
That phrase is a bit of a grey area based on context and can be both highly bigoted and offensive if used in the context of hate speech and / or discrimination

My parents are overbearing, clingy,and guilt trippers; I haven’t committed any murders yet.

They do it because they choose to. Regardless of all other circumstances, the choice is always theirs.

This is only true if you’re a firm believer in all nature, no nurture. That’s not where the scientific consensus is.

Lol you’re describing probably a quarter of parents.
Some people are just born wrong.
