The guy who is wanted by police for making threats to attack the UCLA has released an 800 page manifesto. Post kino from the manifesto:
https://files.catbox.moe/cd0tsi.pdf>>497436Dude I just said both factors are important.
Environmental factors are important in terms of
prognosis, in any case.
Environmental factors/material conditions can definitely create addictions and mental maladjustment (and undo them).
I will never deny this.
Genetic factors still matter. The goal of academics in psychiatric and clinical psychology is among other things to try to isolate the genetic factors from the environmental ones in order to find better cures, and provide better material conditions to cure mental illnesses – when they aren't corrupt assholes.
If (You) are too binarybrained (a new mental disorder) to understand this, your loss.
>>497441>Unfortunately even if we wanted to we don't have enough knowledge to induce schizophrenia.You could pretty successfully do it, IMO, but the ethics of it is… uhm… questionable. You would need to shove shitton of psychoactive drugs into people and constantly bugger them about their fathers.
>>497442I'm not the one asserting something that can't be backed up.
>>497442he can't prove that genetics isn't a factor because the bulk of evidence says otherwise regardless of how "weak" it is. Equally, he can't provide evidence for his positive claim that it is environmental.
>>497443yes you are you are asserting that schizophrenia is entirely induced by one's environment
>>497445>>723250Idk, like how animals don't have psychological illnesses, only humans?
>inb4 antrhopomorphizing captivated animals as having "depression" and the likesplz, no more shit science
>CartesianYou don't need to be a dualist to understand that the human psyche is unparalleled in the natural world. For example, while an "internal monologue" is ultimately just atoms and chemicals interacting into forming a series of representations in a person's brain for that person, it is unlike anything our other organs do, and is inaccessible to others.
>>497446If you want to consider the mental state of animals only in a hypothetical state of pure wilderness, sure they rarely display maladaptive behavior interfering with their abilities to survive.
That still doesn't answer the question:
<Why would genes only matter for some physical illnesses, and not for psychological ones?
>the human psyche is unparalleled in the natural worldThis is might be the simplest reason why genomes might directly influence the human psyche: if our brains are more developed than the rest of the animal kingdom, then there are more potential ways for all kind of factors to make them function subtly wrong.
>it is unlike anything our other organs do, and is inaccessible to othersThe brain is organic matter just like the rest of our other organs. The genetic laws of cell replication also apply to the brain.
Call me a happooner but I wish he'd shot up a school in minecraft even if he failed or whatever, it'd be a nice way to close the school shooter saga where we've gone from hapa autists to chinlets and now a black incel. It'd have been only 40 miles away from Columbine in Boulder Colorado where he was residing, he even mentions it in the manifesto
And he's not the only one of these guys to get creative in his manifesto, check out the Virginia Tech incel's one act masterpieces

Anyways how did glowies get him so fast? I assume they had been tracking him for a while, but the earliest date we have of the emails is Jan 30 and they got him in Feb 1? Did he pussy out at the end?
Also happy Black History Month
>>497461>Most people dont even bother reading manifestos of terrorists or would be terrorists.But they end up circulating in internet backwaters such as this, where they are appreciated by other weirdos and, in doing so, exert some nonzero effect. In fact, it is in such shadowy backwaters where they have a disproportionate influence because normal, well-adjusted individuals by definition do not seek out inspiration from radical action or speech.
The particular manifesto this thread is about is a bit of a different story .It's so garish that no one can take it seriously and is more of a freak show to gawk at or an absurdist piece of black (pardon the double meaning) humor.
>>497470>>497469can you fuck off to a different thread where you google studies and post the first results without even having read them?
k thx
>>497465>>497472Dr. Harris already made us the perfect thread theme:
>>497350>>497466Perfect
>>497470literally just google it and you'll get hundreds of results
for someone so oddly confident that the racial side of things can't be true, yet simultaneously so confident that schizophrenia is 100% genetic, you haven't really thought things out to their logical ends, it seems
