A surplus of men A deficit of peace [View all]

https://kar.kent.ac.uk/11430/1/surplus_men_IS_article.pdf

This article made me realize why white men (young) commit most mass shootings. Why they are so violent. Why violence against women...

I'm only halfway through a you tube video that ties this subject (see linked pdf scientific study) to

democracy or lack thereof

authoritarian rule

why low status men voted for the convicted felon ( among other things they like his violent rhetoric)

Charlie Kirk: why a low status white male (a republican) murders a bombastic blow hard pod caster named Charlie Kirk, who was himself a fascist.

The you tube video I saw 1/2 of, also ties together what our American society does because of surplus males (for example, let the surplus males kill each, start wars to kill off surplus males, give surplus males life shortening jobs so they die early. And so on)

Anyway, if I can figure out a way to find and post said You tube video, I will update this.
UPDATE: "How Surplus Males Are RESHAPING Our Politics" YouTube video



THIS VIDEO AND THE ACCOMPANYING SCIENTIFIC STUDIES CLICKED FOR ME, SO MUCH SO THAT I AM TYPING THIS ALL CAPS.

I had to stop the youtube video halfway through so I could come here and add this to my DU journal. An oh wow moment.

I encourage DUers to check this stuff out. I know that I am going to comb through this literature further.
