His frame of mind is so, so dangerous. Elliot's contrived "evil laugh", his vanity, money, everything... you can substitute a lot of things for the word "girls" and get Trump in this scenario. Money? How much money does one person need? How many "objects"?
Elliot Roger was a malignant narcissist. This one, Elliot, uses the word "loser", too. He preens. He discards all that was handed to him on a silver freaking platter. Then he commits mass murder and kills himself.
This is some scary shit. Trump's like Elliot Roger, without all the charm.

As proof that he "deserves" a beautiful blonde sex servant, he points out that he has $300 Georgio Armani sunglasses and a BMW that is nicer than 90% of the cars driven by other students at his college.
Like Trump, he believes money and the accessories it can purchase define one's value and what the rest of the world "owes" one.

(18,748 posts)He's got something huge missing from him, whether it's intellectual curiosity, or a sense of humor. We might say, "that boy ain't right". And the fact that this one has access to the nukes doesn't help. Both of them are completely unpredictable & erratic.
Also, he bases his most passionate wants on things other people want, but he wants them more. If I were that age, I would have initially found him attractive, then when he opened his mouth I'd be disgusted.
