mass shooting apathy 

The condition by which our horror over the reports of innocent lives taken, families destroyed, and not enough done to put an end to such gun based mass casualty violence, over time, leads to mere head nods of sadness given how commonplace they have become, and how in order for us to get through the day, we must block out what we felt over "Sandy Hook" or "Columbine," or "Parkland," multiplied by the number of times it has happened since.
It is sad how, while the one hand, I feel terrible over the most recent mass shooting, my mass shooting apathy has kicked as a survival mechanism, and made me feel less than I did when I first heard of the "Columbine" incident.

mass shooting generation 

The generation of young people in school between Columbine and Parkland massacres, where mass shootings have become commonplace.
After Parkland the mass shooting generation finally said enough is enough and with the leadership of student activist have taken on the NRA and Republican and Democratic representatives that have been restrained by NRA and their cronies. NRA policies have had priority over gun safety and those advocating background checks, mental health screening, and limitations on firepower.

Australia Mass Shooting

Strictest gun regulations on the planet guys. So... You know they are going to cry anti-semitism. He hated the Jews cus he ain'ted the Jews.
Hym "Australia Mass Shooting if more proof that stricter gun regulations do nothing to stop people from murdering you. Maybe you could try not weaponizing schizophrenia and stealing people's shit. OR... Maybe if you weren't such lying, obnoxious piece of shit... Maybe you would get murdered less. I don't know. I don't ever get murdered. That's not a problem I ever have. Clearly I'm doing something right. Conversely, if I do get murder while the Deadman switch is armed... You all will likely also get murdered. So that's good at least. Either way, let's go ahead and get the anti-anti-semitism rhetoric going. He hated the Jews for no reason! He had no good reason to hate the Jews or kill anyone! There is no reason to murder and there is even less reason to kill Jews. Unless you're trying to shift the demographics so that their are more hot Jewish women available. That's literally the only good reason to do it! But that I don't think is why they did it."

Mass shootings 

Is it just me or is the world getting crazier? Hold on... Wait a second... I need to check Urban Dictionary quick so I can write some dialogue into my movie, verbatim. No no no. I just need like 3 more days! Gimme 3 more days! I just need to wait and see if this guy writes anything I can use. What? Who cares if sketch comedians make jokes about "whichever one doesn't get us sued". I just need more time! It's just getting good.
Hym "... Unless, of course, you're me. Then you don't need to be trained because I have a naturally sophisticated mind hahaha!"

Iam "Hey, does it seem like there have been a lot of mass shootings lately to you?"

Hym "Huh? I donno. Maybe. I haven't been keeping track. I bound to happen eventually. That was kind of the whole point."

Iam "Really? That seemed like something you would keep track of..."

Hym "Really? If feel like my stance has always been that no one actually cares. They pretend to care because caring is a virtue. If they don't pretend to have the required virtue they are ostracized. And now they are all trapped in an endless cycle of pretending to care about things they are totally apathetic about. 'This mass shooting, sponsored by NordVPN!'. 'This triple child murder, sponsored by Raid: Shadow Legends.' It's free money. Just sit around and wait for someone to get raped and the make a video about an article THAT SOMEONE ELSE WROTE and as long as you set yourself up by making a video of yourself yelling at a green haired retard who thinks 'he's' a 'she' and everyone will watch your subsequent videos about other people's videos and/or articles and throw money at you."

Iam "You know what? Yeah. You've always been pretty consistent on that."

Hym "Yep. I'm sophisticated, profound, compelling, and I make brilliant observations. It's wild to me that people legitimately can't do the things I can do."
