The Worst Documentary | Castle Super Beast Clips 

Plus, as wooly said: some of them had the gall to laugh when retelling their stories for the documentary. No. Recompense is made by remorse and humility. It's not merely "water under the bridge" because they were kids - adults are just grown up children, after all. It's not reincarnation - there is no absolving of fault.

@@wormwoodbecomedelphinus4131 Yea there is a dumb belief that you just change in adulthood. That you just hotswap your mind and behaviour when you "grow up". Bull shit. People dont just change. That takes work. alot of work. it doesnt just happen.

And after they sent him the movie for approval 15 years earlier and he never got back with them so in a final act these Boomers who are still clueless said sure wether it's famous or infamous I'll be remembered for that time I kicked that kid's ass 50 years ago, that'll teach him for not being dismissed from class 5 minutes ago and they called him a dick, SMH. 50 years later and they still can't step outside of themselves and realize the true damage they caused, it just felt like their grandchildren told them they might be wrong 25 years ago and then they said 15 years ago.... maybe 🤔 nope I remember nobody liked him so he deserved it 🤯

@@wormwoodbecomedelphinus4131 unfortunately a lot of people really DO believe it's just what kids do and it's water under the bridge. Which is patently bollocks. It is telling if they'll laugh about their memories of bullying, that's for damn sure. If you really grow up into a good person you'd be fucking mortified to reflect on it.

Even just hearing the background story it's obvious why this is repeating history--because why would anyone ever think that someone who had been mass-bullied by an entire class would want anyone to make a film about what happened and distribute it? Just attempting to do more public humiliation

Better then my experience with it. At the school I went to it was shown in Health and PE classes to tell the kids "McDonald bad"

I had to watch that movie in public school multiple times which was weird cause most of us didn't choose what we ate as 11 year olds

@@MacMens0100 Yeah, what the hell were you supposed to eat in Taco Tuesday if you didn't brought anything from home?

I watched it in health class years after the super size option was taken off the menu, so a large amount of information was outdated. The message boiled down to "don't do what this guy is doing" which we as middle schoolers either had no intention to do so or that decision was out of our hands.

@@brochebug I vividly have the same recollection. Which now makes me even more concerned for the public school system.

one of the few times I can think of where something pat said was 100% on the money

​@@Gojiro7 He's gotta put that Psychology learning to use once in awhile

Its a profound statement dont get me wrong but its a little too "Only a sith deals in absolutes". Like at what age do we start applying informed decision making? is it Primary School age? Middle School Age? High School Age? Like bullies can come from any age group, literally and I personally believe any one beneath a 6th grade is acting purely on primitive impulse rather and rarely any higher rational thought process.

This study has conflicted with multiple large case studies. (That is, that a lot of bullies have low self esteem, although not all of them. Some seem to have a very high sense of status, but it is very hard to say if that is just a mask they are wearing while in public) This reference also gives a very narrow look at bullies behavior and where it stems from. Even if bullies have a high esteem, their actions can be easily traced back to bad parenting, or the absence of a good father figure/teacher.

Turns out you need to have a high opinion of yourself to think others are bellow you and deserved to be picked on. Who could have seen that coming?

Every evil person in history thought they were better than everyone else, and used that unwarranted self-esteem to justify their behavior. For some reason when it's school kids people think we suddenly live in opposite world.

All I could find when I search the Bully's Pulpit is some Teddy Roosevelt stuff. Maybe Link it bud.

@@SSFhighcommandJOHN Literally the first thing that comes out. He literally put the reference with the name of the person who penned it.

Don't do anything to provoke them, otherwise it's your fault for starting it.

"Remember, it takes two to fight." Yea, but it only takes one to get my ass kicked. Or possibly three because bullies are pack animals.

@@theotherjared9824 Yup I remember getting in a fight with a bully just defending myself. Of course we sit in the office an the principle rants about how it takes 'two to fight' like wtf? Just stand there an take it I guess? even then we still would get shit for even being involved in a fight.

I mean, mine DID (his dad got sent to jail) but also like no adult outside of my parents ever lifted a single finger about it, and the school actively supported the bully whenever he'd turn around and cry when he almost got in trouble and then blamed it on me.

I remember having to go to the principal office multiple times to deal with my highschool bully. Took about two and a half months before they did something.

Turns about people who abuse others feel extremely justified in doing so, to protect the own ego. "Well I'm not like those other bullies/abusers, I'm different!"

Tbf, it wasn't about him.

@@alastor8091 it was, it was expressly about the victim. They talked about how they bullied him, what they did, laugh about it and then give an excuse for way they did.

@@Broomer52 no, its about their mindset. The title of the documentary is "When WE were bullies". The movie is explicitly about the bullies. Did you not pay attention to the synopsis the guys gave? The focus isn't on the bullied kid.

@@alastor8091 I listened, did you? How did you pull a “this is a documentary about how the bullies think” out of a documentary built on the basis of “we all bullied this one kid in class, let’s bring them all together and talk about it and laugh about what we did” I suppose in that sense it technically is but the single unifying factor is “we bullied a kid mercilessly and want to share our work with the world and give an unjustified excuse for why and we’re going to do it without the permission of the victim and then tell him essentially ‘it’s for your own good’”

Most people. The vast majority of people act civil purely on the basis that they would get fucking bodied if they didn't walk it back a couple notches.

@@somenerd3515 lol just listened to Arin rant about why Twitter is only a horrible place for conversation because there's no threat of getting punched in the face for being an asshole, so everybody feels free to be an asshole on Twitter. Great Elden Ring commentary lol but he's not wrong

@@somenerd3515 sounds like you've had it rough. i can assure you it's not most.

@@charleswisconsin9196 humans are animals, and are inclined to act as such if not taught the alternative.

@@justanobadi6655 You worded that like there aren't animals that naturally act altruistically. Humans are >social< animals. We are inclined to act in a way that benefits others because it indirectly benefits us. It's a simple and common train of thought for us to realize that being nice to others is a good way for them to be nice to us.

Hey, defo fits in for the Oscars for sure. Circle-jerking and absolute jackasses.

@@irondoomable He didn't win so at least there's that consolation.

"AND NOW I HAVE TO DREDGE UP YOUR OLD WOUNDS BECAUSE MY WIFE DOESN'T LOVE ME ANYMORE AND ASKED FOR A DIVORCE. i HAVE NO IDEA WHY SSHE DID THAT"

But that is pats mentality. But outside of school.

he got a goddamn academy award for it

Not as sociopathic as that Imelda Marcos documentary where she attempts to make herself look charitable by throwing money into the impoverished streets of Manila. Which, is juxtaposed with most of her current shoe and clothing collection (a collection that she increased by embezzling the finances of the Philippines during her husband's reign of martial law). Considering the number of documentaries I've seen about some of the most eccentric lunatics in world history, "Yeah, the whole class fucked with this one kid and it was fucking rad yo!" isn't scratching the surface in regards to human sociopathy.

@@themachoechidnaugandarandy7583 But Pat WAS a bullied kid so now you've gotta make a documentary about him starting from that one soccer game he was left at, and the various rage moments of Omikron

Yeah, there are exceptions, but when THAT MANY people are all shitting on the same guy there's usually a reason. Recall Columbine. The reason the two guys who did it got a news reputation as having been bullied was because they were shitty white supremacists and everyone could tell they were awful people. Exactly the kind of profile you expect from the harbingers of the modern mass shooting. It's a throughline with a LOT of school violence, but it's too complicated for the breaking-news media cycle to effectively parse. OF COURSE bullying is wrong, but sometimes it really is justified.

"What? You don't forgive us for all bullying you and not feeling much remorse at all? Pfft, little pussy ass bitch, bet your wife is the breadwinner huh, gonna cry about it?"

This is peak levels of narcissism and Sociopathy, is this person even human

It's like a diffusal of responsibility thing I bet. "This can't be bad because everyone is doing it" or "I can't get in trouble because they're doing it too." That, plus add the fact that everyone wanted to fit in and/or were afraid they'd be bullied if they didn't join in and I think that explains it. The real questions are where was the authority figure to challenge this in the school and what shitstain kid started it.

Why are three out of four replies to this hidden?

it's not like it materialized out of nowhere.

i get the feeling the research began and ended with playing through the wolfenstein games

@@rossman8919 this documentary was on TV and it was pre The New Order. I have no clue how it got made apart from some guy in charge just busting at the thought because "I'm American so that means I'm cool too like these experts are saying"

Honestly that entire genre of nazi fetishism is really awful. Like there's at least a dozen documentaries where the director gets almost "serial killer crush" on Hitler in trying to rationalize and pathologize the horrific shit Hitler did while trying to spin him as a dark genius or the head of some conspiracy theory garbage while having an almost fanboyish obsession with nazi tech and industry with zero time to reflect on like. How any of this could be tone deaf as hell when shit like Charlottesville happend

@@mep15067 You don't need to explain Nazi fetishism to me, I play Battlefield so I got to meet them during Battlefield V when they would write full essays complaining about DICE not selling the "fall 1943 Eastern Front blüntsmöken" camo pattern or whatever. Meanwhile when people asked for specific gear for the American or British factions those same guys would suspiciously ask "Why do you care so much about that? The defaults look fine." (For reference, the British uniform people wanted was the main uniform of the war that DICE forgot to include and not just a camo pattern that was used for 3 weeks like the Nazi players wanted.) There was also the time when CoD Vanguard was announced and people were crying asking "Why can you play as the Soviets and not the Germans in campaign? The Soviets were way worse!"

A lot of politicians are bullies. One particular fuck nugget of a bully got to a pretty damn high position in the US.

middle-managers hardly ever hire anyone who could replace them, because they want to maintain their own job security. Who would've ever thought, right? :^)

@@bahskintimulholde6191 They deserve to get shot

Not really, because Richard's demands for Jay to self-censor is an asinine one. The abyss gazes also into you.

@@DR3ADER1 no, it's not. it's literally a right under privacy law for most countries. if you take a picture of someone or make a video about someone and they or their guardian do not give explicit consent, you can be sued or arrested (depending on the exact wording of the law in your area). meaning that richard has every right to call the police and force the platforms to drop the documentary, as it is about him and he explicitly said not to make it.

@@Yal_Rathol Incorrect. Once that film is made public, it's the copyright of the filmmakers. Under this logic, no one can post anything about other people online without consenting with the persons of interest. And under this logic, Sites such as Encyclopedia Dramatica can't legally publish pages about anyone online or offline who is a person of interest without their consent. If I write a Kiwi Farms thread about someone who is a lolcow and is publicly or privately making an arse of themselves, the site isn't allowed to make the thread public under such a law, which is incorrect in the United States, where films and other such actions are protected under the First Amendment.

@@DR3ADER1 it's always fun to encounter someone who's knowledge of the law starts and ends with the first and second amendment. no, speech of private citizens, through most mediums, is allowed. there are exceptions, they vary from region to region, but if you post a comment about someone, like for example if i say "DR3D1 is an idiot who doesn't understand the law", that is protected speech. but, if i took a picture of you and then posted it online without your or your parents' permission (depending on your age), you could sue me for breach of privacy. if you explicitly told me not to post it and i did, you could call the police on me. so, for example, if someone made a documentary about you and you said you wanted it taken down, for any reason, they legally have no standing to post it and if they do, you could sue them. copyright will not protect them because you are the subject of the documentary.

@@Yal_Rathol Tell that to Encyclopedia Dramatica or tell that to Null, Kiwi Farms' webmaster. He's received requests from people you can consider to fit the "private citizens" moniker to take hundreds of forum threads down but he correctly tells them to fuck off. Because, it doesn't matter if you took an image of me with or without my permission because the moment you upload it to the internet, I can't do anything about it and it would be an act of me not understanding the law if I tried to sue you for breach of privacy. Because I didn't agree to anything in writing, since there's no evidence of me writing any motions to consent or not consent to the action in the first place. Because private statements recorded privately CAN and will be released publicly and you can't sue people for that. Under your idiotic paralegal logic, Journalists can't record people secretly without the consent of the individuals being recorded. After all, they're private conversations. So if I record you asserting that "right to privacy" supersedes the right to record and document, or find an image of you in your house, I can legally scan/upload it, store it on my computer, post it on any blog that uses US servers (which aren't required to comply with bullshit data protection laws in Europe) and you can't do jack shit about it. Oh, and by the way, Doxxing's legal in the US. And Harassment has a very specific definition in the United States to prevent troglodytes from using their vexatiousness to censor people (Like David A. Stebbins/Acerthorn and Alex Mauer do). Just so you know. And cutting back to the film being available on HBO, Richard's plea was VERBAL, (read: "Not Written"). Verbal pleas and agreements are about as legally binding as your understanding of basic contract law. Or about as fragile as a statue made entirely of sugar glass. From the Privacy Act of 1974 verbatim: "Under the Privacy Act's disclosure provision, agencies generally are prohibited from disclosing records by any means of communication - written, oral, electronic, or mechanical - without the written consent of the individual, subject to twelve exceptions." Pay attention to that "written consent" section. Richard didn't write anything, as such, the filmmakers had every right to make the film public. Does it make them arseholes? Yes, however being an arsehole is sometimes a requirement to exercise any form of freedom, be it speech, expression, information or access. And before you try anything stupid, no, "implied consent" is not sufficient. It MUST be written consent. Top tip, when trying to assert that I "know nothing about the law" be sure to do your research properly first. Stones in glass houses are a risk for self-destruction. Also, fun fact: in England and Wales (not Scotland and NI) they tried to impose superinjunctions to prevent people online from talking about and posting details of people's personal lives, it went as well as you think it did, hilariously badly, people just posted such info anyway in another textbook example of the Streisand Effect. TL;DR Richard is an idiot, Null has every right to host personal information online on his forum, and so does ED. Journalists can record private "off-record" discussions and publish them, regardless of sensitivity, especially in nations and regions with one-party recording laws. Also, the Privacy Act of 1974 is very specific when it comes to "consent", in that it MUST be WRITTEN. Stones: Thrown Glass House: Shattered (edited for cleanup)

also, blaming mental illness or social ills like divorce for it is pretty icky, considering people in vulnerable positions, like the mentally ill, are up to 10 times more likely to be the victim of violence and are almost never the perpetrator (number varies depending on location, and my memory for the exact data may be faulty).

@@monkaWGiga That sounds about right, lol

@@monkaWGiga I hate when people make the argument of "Have you seen how (insert X food item here) is made? It's gross and will make you not want to eat it." News flash, nearly any food item that ends up on a grocery store shelf/in a restaurant goes through some kind of process that probably would be considered gross to your average person, especially if it involves any kind of animal meat. Hell, even disregarding processed foods, I can't imagine that the process of a cow/chicken/etc being killed and cut up into various parts would be very appetizing to anyone who actually sees it happen themselves. By that logic you might as well give up eating anything from your average grocery store or fast food restaurant. And just because it looks/sounds gross to see/hear how a chicken is killed, defeathered, and mutilated into parts doesn't make me suddenly not want to ever eat chicken again.

@@omegaxtrigun Hell, even seeing how vegetables and shit actually grow would creep people out because we can't see how that's done unless you have a see through mirror videotaping the time-lapse of it growing underground.

They even go as far as assault with fucking sewing needle stabbings. Those people are legitimately horrible and the fact that any of them would look back at that with laughter is sociopathy. Lost Judgment was right.

I mean, even if the fandom obviously doesn't agree with his actions, there's a reason Kuwana ended up being a compelling antagonist.

It's not even sociopathy, they recognize that it was wrong of them to do; they just don't give a fuck, or justify it away to themselves. That's what the "Umm it's not about you" statement is, a justification for them to tell "their side" of the story, even though to a non-abusive person, that reason is fucking insane.

@@ubermenschen01 Sociopathy and psychopathy are different. Psychopaths are the ones without empathy, sociopaths typically do have empathy but seek to create conflict and suffering. That said, sociopaths usually have a broad-aiming aggression, to the point that in this situation they might even help the victim to antagonize the rest of the class. So what is actually being exhibited is pure sadism.

And yet people NEVER believe the levels of cruelty people are capable of because they think it's "To unrealistic" which shows how sheltered they are.

Guy was also binge-drinking for years When his doctor says, "yeah your liver is like paté, I have no idea how McDonald's is doing this to you," it kind of puts a certain hue on how he says, "_Yeah man that's crazy_"

And that harder to pretend to be healthy bit was the main purpose of superizeme 2, in where he opens his own fast food chicken joint sprinkled with all the marketing buzzwords that make people buy garbage

SuperSizeMe was like a less impactful The Jungle. Also it exists PURELY to be shown in your middleschool health class. The best thing about SuperSizeMe was that it inspired SuperHighMe

Correct me if I'm wrong, It's been a while since I've seen it, but wasn't there also a point in SuperSizeMe where he talks about how eating nothing but McDonalds was making him unable to have sex with his girlfriend properly? Something about either having no energy, or unable to maintain an erection or something like that? Then shortly after the movie came out it was found out he was a piece of shit and his relationship was on the rocks anyway?

To be fair to Supersize Me, one topic it did touch on (but also failed to make any deep points about, at least as far as I recall) was the issue of portion sizes and how they're advertised. Everyone knows McD's is unhealthy, but there is perhaps a conversation to be had about the way they push their products.

Of course he is because everyone around him is high all the time so it stands to reason that he's high all the time now too

I won't lie, I fell for it. But when your age is measured in single digits, it's easy to fall for things on the HISTORY CHANNEL. What complete bullshit. And people wonder why no one can agree on what is and isn't real anymore.

To me bullying is a sense of power that people either crave or are susptable to, the other factors like shitty grades, bad family life or disabilities just add to it, if you are naturally prone to bad decisions you are most likely to end up a bully then someone who thinks critically or cant fathom hurting others

It's why I think we should let kids just hash thing out in fights sanctioned by the school. Fucking we shouldn't be punishing the victim which always happens. Little shit starts the fight and finally kid whose being bullied had enough and fights back, teacher comes over and kid being bullied gets suspended because "IT DOESN'T MATTER WHO STARTED IT!". BITCH YES IT DOES!

I like to think I would stop at leaving them winded and bruised. But knowing how deeply unrepentant they are as bullies and how angry I was at the time upon realising it. I was in a state of mind to do anything.

@@CaptainTitforce I will clarify though. too much of a softly softly approach will cause the bully to probe you further to see how much they can push you before you either give up or beat them up. You will indeed have instances where they'll never get it unless you've knocked them on their ass and kept going. Because if you stop at them on their ass, they'll think. I should have sucker punched him there. that woulda showed him. No. You send it nice and clear. Pick a fight. You will get a fking fight and you're not coming home without limping. But yes for the most part, a bit of self assertion is enough. But these kinda lads have alot to prove and bragged alot in front of their friends. They need to get a w or get bullied themselves by their own shitty friends.

Similar thing happened to my cousin's. Elder brother got bullied until he beat him up. Then the bully had the bright idea to instead bully the younger brother. But he was on the football team. You can imagine how that went

good to see comments like this- it's important to point out that it is possible that people CAN change, and take accountability of their actions. but this movie is the exact opposite of that. some people can be assholes for the rest of their lives

yeah, when the examples are less extreme it sounds at least a little more reasonable, like if you break something inconsequential out of frustration. But regardless of the scale, the fact that far more people go through the same kind of shit without turning into monsters or abusing other people, clearly shows that this isn't the "default" response.

yeah like 9 times out of 10 if someone's trying to convince you the only way to save the world is down to making individual choices as a consumer they're bullshitting you

While going vegan is legitimately a great thing to do for the planet, and I hugely respect the choice to go vegan, I DESPISE this habit of moral grandstanding and straight-up colonialsm from certain first world vegans in this vein. Just this complete lack of respect or empathy for people’s sociocultural circumstances, where you have privileged western foodies with a plethora of choice, shitting on people who are in areas that have developed their entire economies and cultures to rely on things like fishing, and criticize them for not “being able” to go vegan when the vegan diet is potentially financially infeasible where they are, or they are facing all sorts of local cultural pressures to continue meat consumption, etc. Not every place in the world has a whole foods around every corner.

​@@DoctorCVC going vegan is a great way to slowly kill yourself and do nothing for the earth but feel very smug about it.

The root causes behind the bullies' behaviors can be _(please note I am _*_not_*_ saying "always are" but rather "can be")_ defensible and/or sympathizable. However, the decisions made and the actions taken as a result of those causes should not be excused, especially when it leads to harm on others.

I'm glad you got over it, and I'm sorry it happened. It just terrifies me to think how bullying changes people's course in life. Even if we do successfully grow past it, we never _truly_ do since there's now a foundational part of who we are at this moment that wouldn't be there if it wasn't for the bullying. Now whether or not that holds people back or is a scar they never heal from is case-by-case, but I can never stop thinking about how people have needed to change or grow their personalities from cruel things like this. It's like snapping a young tree's branch. True, it'll eventually grow past and around it, but that branch, no matter how strong of a branch it could become, will never stop bearing the signs of that break. That just horrifies me to think about.

Thank you, yes! It is abuse! I'm almost 30 and I still have issues I've carried since childhood thanks to the bullying I went through throughout all of grade school as a kid My parents may have been neglectful but they never even glared in my direction, on the contrary the kids at my school like, would come up with new ways to beat me up everyday, make fun of me, demean me, and as a girl to be beaten up by boys, specially boys that were a bit older than me, it's just, a fear and distrust and bitterness that sadly it never leaves you, it sticks with you... To this day I still feel helpless and small I blame myself I blame them I honestly don't know who to blame but to this day I harvor this irrational unconscious fear of human relationships, I fear opening up and being taken advantage of, I fear confrontation and i cant stand people touching me, I cant Doctors looked at my bruises and would confront my parents about them beating me up and I always had to explian they were made by my bullies at school that it was not my parents I was constantly anxious, jumpy and angry as a kid thanks to that and even since I've battled with depression Like People just can't fathom how much bullying can truly mess up a person

just make them be refugees who were suffering a sexual emergency, it'll win oscars and sweep the cannes film festival.

Recognizing that you were/are a piece of shit is the first step in no longer being a piece of shit. Good on you for realizing your past faults.

Drugs can fix your brain kids, even the "wrong" ones.

@@ElGrabnar as long as it’s not “that guy who went nuts from X” lol

im sure there's someone out there who was forced to be a bully.

My dad made me get the documentary for him. It was advertised as having a real exorcism with no editing at all. The moment the exorcism began, the amount of sound editing was through the fucking roof lmao

@@ThePandaBrawler turning her into a call of duty zombie

There's a very vicious cycle with bullied kids hurting others, because it's only during a group assault on someone else that they feel welcomed, and so they just. God, I was one of them, and I feel so terrible about the things I did but I understand why I did them, and the reasons are just tragic

@@kattastic9999 I'm not even sure how such a thing would even be fixed, because it's such a basic part of human nature to desire to feel welcomed and accepted that you can't just tell kids to be nice and see results. There are so many tribal dynamics that with some bully victims it's not even _personal,_ they're just an unfortunate sacrificial lamb in someone else's attempt at not feeling scared and alone. How FUCKED is that? That you might not even be getting tortured because they have a personal or even group interest in you specifically, but because you were just the closest available tool for a bunch of kids to unite over?

your brother is a stereotype.

That's rough, man. The older I get, the more I see a common thread on these sorts of things: if someone has acknowledged that they used to be a bully, get away from them as fast as humanly possible, because they've basically just told you what they're capable of. Unless a person has proven to you that they truly are changed through their actions, not words, ACTIONS, then they're basically just showing you they're a shithead who is trying to make themselves feel good at that moment and that it's only a matter of time before they changed that "used to be" to a "currently yours."

Self-replying just to say that this is at its trustet when Pat is describing MMO culture and MMO players being unreasonable weirdos who will not check back later if the servers are full, because what if it's not full now, or now, or what about now, but how about now though?

@@sharkodile22 Yeah, but what the hell were they thinking?

well, the good news is that smashing babies with a wooden mallet is no longer the most violent action a man can take

Jesus sure cries a lot.

I’m very wary of the claim that “children’s brains don’t work right” used to justify a lot of shady, dehumanizing shit. Most kids know what they are doing

@@Flackon As somone who was once a kid the hell they know what they are doing. I did not know what the fuck I was doing in school and regret so much stupid shit I did. You gotta have a real selective memory to think "most kids know what they are doing."

@@Geassguy360 I knew what I was doing as a child. What's your excuse? Your brain shouldn't be that much different than mine

​@@Flackon Adolescence is when our brains begin to properly grow and develop. It's when mental disorders are most likely to show themselves, it's when our brains are most vulnerable to stress and we need more sleep to function "correctly" (which we often do not get due to a variety of factors). We're very malleable and as such we're also very vulnerable to environmental factors (home life, social pressures at school, etc). But specifically, well into our teens our prefrontal cortex is still developing which means we often can't do things like make informed decisions, plan ahead, handle our emotions effectively, or even focus on what's going on in the moment. These aren't all always going to be issues for every teen but it's all stuff that can very easily cause people to make poor choices due to an inability to properly assess said choices. That's why I said I give people who were bullies a bit of leeway as long as they recognize what they did was wrong, because it's not uncommon for teens to do stupid and/or bad shit. But no, I doubt most kids "know what they're doing."

@@WillowMelody It's possible it's not most kids, and in fact only a few. That said, "stupid" choices are due to ignorance and "bad" choices are a moral judgement. Avoiding either of these shouldn't be inherently out of reach of a teen's prefrontal cortex, in my view. Otherwise it would suggest that some humans are extraordinarily developed at an early age, while most aren't, and I don't think our biology is that different. I could be wrong, though.

Holy shit that's so much better of a title it makes me even angrier.
