Violence in Movies

[dkwrtw]

If that was aimed at me that's a little silly. The way I write is my natural way of writing and my normal vocabulary. That quote is also hypocritical. Psychobabble is using complex language to hide empty flawed content or overwhelm the reader. I had to Google it to actually know what it meant...the sites I found wrote the definition more concisely and using less 'big words'. The way I even described it above was much more easier to understand than that rubbish quote, no offense.

You're more likely to find psychobabble in literature where writers will use it for those purposes as listed above, and in pseudoscience.

What I said was easy to understand. But if you don't get what I said (after all, I did make some assumptions), you can ask me what I mean instead of just denying everything I say.

It was simply a quote, not directed at anybody or anything :dunno

Yes it is a quote, but it is not an event.

 

[dkwrtw]

nope, just a quote.

 

[KimmyCharmeleon]

So what's the relevance of the quote?

 

[dkwrtw]

No relevance. I just have a thing for quotes.

 

[KimmyCharmeleon]

Oh okay...moving onto the topic...does anyone have anything to add?

 

[dkwrtw]

I don't think there's much to add at this point :dunno

The best kind of violence is when its repetitive and brutal to the point the man looks psychologically disturbed

Personally I prefer when Movies are creative with their violence

Is this thread about our appreciation for violence cause im too high to comprehend the OP

 

[dkwrtw]

the question was whether or not you think violence on screen can be blamed for violence committed in real life.

oh. no way. you're either born a violent person or you're not.

 

[dkwrtw]

That's what I said.

 

[itsmeJonB]

That's what I said.

you and i are highly intelligent individuals

 

[dkwrtw]

Indubitably

 

[KimmyCharmeleon]

I only believe a person can be born violent if they have the neurological damage.

then its clearly over your head

Not really. What evidence do you even have, to even suggest, that what you are saying is more right than my assertion?

I don't know, but I'm looking at a study right in front of my eyes, which says A LOT more than what you can produce.

It says a lot...in short...about damage to parts of the brain that are associated with emotions - amygdala, limbic system, temporal lobe. If you didn't know already, lesions to these areas can make people aggressive.

Also, if the mother of the child had problems during the gestation of the child...the list here says things like high fever, toxemia, substance abuse, malnutrition, toxins exposure.

Also, if the child was born prematurely, had a low birth weight, or went through fetal distress of some sort.

It's factors like these...they relate to violence and aggression. Even the levels of serotonin (hey something neurological ) affects impulsivity, aggression and antisociality.

You can't just ignore these. I tried searching for cases on genetics and violence, and hey, ZILCH! Nothing came up.
