ok.

If we define, being alive as good, and murder as an evil thing, simply because humans consider murder to be most of the time, under most moral frameworks, as evil.

We can define a war, as murder, but on massive scale.

Which we can define a war that killed 60 million europeans, to be... 60 million murders.
Which can be defined as evil.

>But the murder of jews
If we define one of the core moral teachings of christians, to be that murder is evil.
We can logically assume that killing massive amount of jews to be an evil act.

>but they're evil.
Under modern systems of law, we not longer use the death punishment, except for extreme acts, that logically doesn't follow that millions of jews were doing such crimes, since there's not evidence every jew was part of the sabatean conspiracy as nazis claim.

So logically, it can be argued that hitler genocide was an act of extreme evil, since there's not evidence that every jew killed deserved to be killed.

Everyone I knew and hung out with was a wastoid, and we knew it. It was hip to be ashamed of it, in a strange way. A weird kind of narcissistic despair. Or just to feel directionless and lost — we romanticized it.

Kids literature is defined by their desire to escapism into a world of fantasy where they're the heroe and do magical BS power level naruto vs goku shit where they're saved by the power of their One piece nakama secret fruit of the dark ancient land of final fantasy.

Girls literature are defined by their desire to be special among their peers and eventually defeat the popular stacy and steal the show and find a nice loyal handsome nerdy shy bf.

Teenager literature is defined by a rejection of the naivety of child stories and go towards what they percieve adult life is about (drugs, sex, porn, gore, edgy, nihilism).

Adults are able to enjoy kids stories, by understanding they're just kids dumb escapism, but they start to seek instead non fiction, historical dramas, political stuff, war stories, sci fi.
Adults are defined by their relationship to be useful to their group, gain status because of their job and get a nice wife.
Female adults tend to go into a return of their youth ideal, after the cock carrousel and finding a nice beta husband by 30.

Old people are more motivated by nostalgic values of a forgotten era where the youth isn't so degenerate and their desire to share their experience with young people.

At least on general terms.

Complaining about manga/anime crap is only the mark of being mentally a teenager.

Nocturnal Animals was so good -- still need to read the source material though. Just the contrast between the world of the story and the real world is so descriptive. I could read each image as a page in a book.

It seem to me, even though I haven't read literature on the philosophy of humour, and based on what I see on lolcows and internet jokes, that humour follows some logic.

First, I define the male purpose in society, and such is the mode of his social status is to be "useful" to others, while women is to be seen "cute, youthful".

As such, I've found comedy and jokes and mocking others to be based on the following two archetypes.
First, is the charlatan, as such is someone who brags and talks but can't walk the talk.
Second, is the weirdo, which is closer to the buffon, is someone because of his weird behaviour to be "funny" and call attention.

As such, it seems to me that lowcows are usually a combination of these two archetypes.
It's usually a weirdo who is also a charlatan.
But I feel there's usually two elements that are necesary.
There's also the USI, which I suppose is natural land of the charlatan.
But the more important element seem to be a mixture of low self awareness and USI.

So back to the original argument, I think it boils down to making yourself feel better, (schandeufrede).
If we see internet mocking, it boils down to lowering the social status of people who we hate (because of politics) and people we want to destroy their social status (because of revenge).

Still, the best targets for this are usually famous internet celebrities or powerful people, because mocking them puts us at a higher social status position, even if is a lie, this usually makes us "cooler" among our peers, because it increases our social status among our small group of friends. (Again, because you're mocking a political enemy to the ideology of the group).
This scapegoat has to have some qualities we mentioned before to be an effective matter of jokes.

In any case, this is usually how mocking works between males.
For women, It's usually the missfortune of the "bitch" who we all hate.
