Hopefully there's a cure some day. Perhaps they could spend some of the Africa AIDS money to search for a cure.

Lack of social sanction is one way society / culture limits degeneracy.
Lack of opportunities to be degenerate limits degeneracy. We're still able to limit the median straight males opportunities for degeneracy.
Limiting homosexuals opportunities for degeneracy was homophobic, and now they're much more degenerate.
Why do we need to seperate proclivity from opportunity?
The mechanisms for reducing degeneracy seem geared for reducing opportunities. The interventions for reducing / removing the proclivity would likely be more invasive.

Widows produce better outcomes than never married single moms.

My experience has been, it may be generational, that gay men in long-term committed relationships will still seek sex outside their committed relationship or will seek sex with their partner with others outside the relationship.
Part of the degeneracy is the availability. The median straight 20yo is less degenerate because pussy is less available. Many straight men could be more degenerate if they had lower standards for pussy.
Having higher standards makes you less degenerate.
The median straight is less degenerate than the median gay.

Perhaps not for the median degenerate, maybe for billionaire with access to progressive power levers, pact with a demon, etc.
not baffled by a billionaires choice to marry her
I am. It suggests to me he's not a normal healthy man.
He could have married a much younger fertile attractive women. As it is, it seems to me a pact with a demon is more likely, no sense of an Élan vital from any of these people.

Marrying a divorcée who's eleven years older doesn't really shift the 'confirmed bachelor' assessment for me.

Why don't users on theMotte take the idea of societal collapse more seriously?
I do, but then I believe we live in a broken and fallen world corrupted by sin.
#4 I've done my best, I've four children with my wife and try to make it look good. The other enumerated issues, I do my best to withdraw my consortium, keep invested in God's kingdom and not in the systems of the world.
I believe man's created order will collapse perhaps already underway and the best path through is to prepare hyperlocally.
Preparing to be unburdened by what has been.

Lists him looking for anonymous bareback sex with other HIV+ men and self identification as a 'bear'. Seems more degenerate that not though I've no specific evidence for assless chaps.
My suspicion is the degeneracy we see and is reported is the tip of the degeneracy iceberg, the reality is wider and deeper.
Bug chasing will scare the hoes normies.
He may be a very median 'gay'. The median is still very degenerate.

Is your claim he's not an assless chapped degenerate?

Yes. I've seen reporting he's being mentored by Mel Gibson. It's a nice redemption story.

Absent a custodial setting where is engagement could be better monitored.
Historically there were institutions to house juvenile delinquents.

His behavior from 13 - 17 is the concern, not internet posting or reading material.

What I'm looking for is more a custodial / residential school or reform school.

In this particular incident he goes from homicidal ideation at 13 to a narrowly averted attack at his prior school and the successful attack at the dance school at 17.
In between there was an expulsion from school for violence and admitting carrying a knife to school to 'Use it', an out of school attack on a student with a hockey stick on which he'd written his intended victims names. This attack sees him barred from from his new school's campus and he receives instruction online, with home visits from tutors sometimes with the police. There's a gap between the expulsion and new school due to an alleged incident at his home.
The reporting on his choice of reading materials is just noise. His behavior should be the focus, if he's murderous for Al Queda or Islamic reasons or murderous nutjob reasons.
What is the argument for not having residential / custodial schools for 'juvenile delinquents' or sending kids like this to them?
How long have the state schools (closed residential / custodial schools) been closed? This fact pattern or less in many circumstances would have seen you sent to one.
I'm not immediately aware of mass shooters in the US with as much prior contact with law enforcement and various programs and referrals, though they plausibly exist.
In this instance and I suspect many others a more custodial environment would have produced a better outcome.
My mother was sent to a state residential / custodial school for girls in the 60's for much less.

Some are more prone to violence. Although his specific parents may not be, there's like to be regression to the mean of a population.

After you've been expelled for violence wouldn't a period in a residential facility / hospital / school / borstal be appropriate?

Remembered a couple weeks ago as unlike the other murders that had their federal death sentences commuted by Biden, he did not.

After the expulsion for violence isn't some compulsory mental health follow-up and involuntary admission appropriate?
I know this can be challenging in the US since the 60's and 70's for civil liberties reasons but if this is the alternative I'm unconvinced.

Yes, and?
TBI looks to be fairly ordinary globohomo think tank. If he's unparalleled how do Clinton, Soros and Obama have similar or larger foundations?
If we're bombing things to shit anyway I fully support doing so to return the holy lands to Christendom and the subjugation or expulsion of both saracen and jew.
