I'm not going to keep reading things that don't remotely say the things you claim they do.

Jesus Christ

He's not going to intercede for you. You're on your own, here.

1. Long term loneliness and social exclusion are identical. There's no need for you to be very picky about the wording.

No they're not. I've been socially excluded; I don't have long-term loneliness.

2. The study does looks at aggression to predict violent tenancies.

"Perhaps rejection and social exclusion are potential causes of aggressive behavior. The school shooters apparently regarded their actions as responses to rejection by others". https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11761307/

There's no use even addressing this, because you're changing your criteria. The study does not "point out the correlation between long-term loneliness and violent behavior," that you said it did.

[doubtingthomas]

No they're not. I've been socially excluded; I don't have long-term loneliness.

Fine, I'll change it to social exclusion.

However, you didn't read the study. The study says that aggression is just as meaningful as physical harm. In other words, it looks at aggression to predict violent tendencies.

There is an obvious correlation between social exclusion and aggression.

The answer isn't to force young women to be love slaves to older losers.

The study says that aggression is just as meaningful as physical harm. It basically looks at aggression to predict violence. Read it.

Anyways, the older losers seem to be women. There's an increasing number of single childless women over 40.

An older woman is more likely to be single than an older man.

And here's what I told Marcus:

I am not advocating for some slave trade.

[doubtingthomas]

It's just a goddamn metaphor. Jesus Christ.

I am not advocating for some slave trade.

No, i don't buy that, you were pretty specific:

So you think I am advocating for a slave trade?

It's clear you always think of the worst possible interpretation to the things I say, and a stupid one.

What I am saying is simple. Society shouldn't reject people who are socially awkward or intellectually disabled.

Glad its simple for you. Can you just answer the question?

But if you want violence to decrease, give the lonely guys some friends.

What solution are you asking for?

[doubtingthomas]

What solution are you asking for?

It's not hard to come up with a solution. I am sure there are many solutions.

Teach people not to reject the socially awkward?

And why does being single and/or childless make people "older losers," as you put it?

I don't know, ask Gadianton.

That's what you meant by this?

What does "give the lonely guys some friends" mean?
