Dziko linasiya chikondi ndipo anapita kunkhondo. Iye anali gulu lankhondo limodzi - china gulu la asilikali, akukonzekera zolinga zake pozunza mobisa, akukonzekera "tsiku la kubwezera" kwake.
"Omwe akuwombera mfutiwo amadziona kuti ndi ochimwira anthu ochita zinthu mopanda chilungamo, omwe amatsutsana ndi kupanda chilungamo kwakukulu," Peter Turchin adalemba chaka ndi theka lapitalo, pamapeto pa kuphedwa kwa Sandy Hook. M'nkhani yake, mwaulemu wotchedwa "Canaries mu Mgalimoto Yamagetsi," yomwe inafalitsidwa ku Social Evolution Forum, iye akufotokoza zapamwamba za kupha anthu ambiri. Kuyambira '60s, iwo awonjezeka kuposa khumi. Chinachake chikuyenda molakwika mu dziko lomwe talipanga.
Opha anthu nthawi zonse amafotokozedwa ngati osungulumwa. . . zinyama, psychopaths. Iwo sali ngati ife, ndipo chotero zolinga za kupha zimayesedwa kokha mu zofooka za miyoyo yawo - m'mabuku a kumanzere ndi mavidiyo a YouTube, mauthenga a maganizo, ziwonetsero zogawidwa za anzako - ndipo iwo sali kanthu kusiyana ndi chidwi chosowa, ndi chenicheni-zosangalatsa za TV.
Choncho, Elliot Rodger, mwana wa 22 amene adapha ophunzira asanu ndi mmodzi a UC Santa Barbara, adadzipha, sabata yatha ku Isla Vista, Calif., Anatsekedwa kunja kwa anthu, adakhomedwa mu bokosi lakutalikirana. Iye analemba mwa iye magazini zaka zapitazo:
"Ndinali wofunitsitsa kukhala ndi moyo umene ndikudziwa kuti ndiyenera; moyo wokhala wofunidwa ndi atsikana okongola, moyo wa kugonana ndi chikondi. Amuna ena amatha kukhala ndi moyo wotero. . . nanga bwanji ine? Ndiyenera! Ndine wabwino kwambiri, ziribe kanthu momwe dziko lapansi linandichitira ine mosiyana. Ine ndikukonzedwera kukhala zinthu zazikulu. "
Mosiyana ndi anthu ambiri osungulumwa - koma mofanana ndi ena onse amene akufuula pamutu pawokha chifukwa cha kusungulumwa kwawo - adafuna njira yothetsera mavuto ake. Adani ake adasokoneza moyo wake, choncho adadzikweza ndi kuwatsata. Iye "anapita kunkhondo" ndipo, potero, analemekeza mkhalidwe wake ndipo anatsimikizira zochita zake. Kuitcha "nkhondo" ndi chidziwitso chotsutsana ndi chiwawa chifukwa cha kupha.
Chizindikiritso cha kupha anthu ambiri - kupha osazizwitsa kwa anthu osadziwika - sikuti ozunzidwawo ndi osalongosoka, koma kuti mwa njira ina akuimira "zolakwika" zomwe wakuphayo akufuna kuzichotsa. Ozunzidwa Elliot Rodger adafuna kuti, atangoyamba kupha anthu awiri ndi mlendo m'nyumba yake, iwo anali azinyalala: zizindikiro za amayi omwe adamkana iye moyo wake wonse. Pamene sakanatha kulowa mnyumbamo, adayamba kuwombera anthu pafupi, omwe anali ophunzira a ku koleji.
M'nkhani yake, Turchin anafotokoza "chikhalidwe chosinthira": kuona bungwe linalake, bungwe, mtundu, mtundu, chikhalidwe - kapena zilizonse - zomwe zingasokoneze moyo wa munthu ndipo potero, kugwira aliyense wogwirizana ndi gululo ngati gawo za "zoipa" zina, zomwe zimafuna kuwonongedwa. Izi ndizo kupha anthu ambiri. Izi ndizo zauchigawenga. Izi ndizo nkhondo.
Turchin analemba kuti, "Kunkhondo, iwe umayenera kuyesa kupha munthu amene simunakumane nayepo kale. Simukuyesera kumupha munthu uyu, mukuwombera chifukwa akuvala yunifolomu ya adani. Zitha kukhala mosavuta wina aliyense, koma malinga ngati akuvala yunifolomu yofanana, mumakhala kuwombera. Asilikali a mdani ndi osasintha. Monga akunenera mu mafilimu a gangster, 'palibe munthu aliyense, malonda basi.' "
Mfundo ya zonsezi ndi yakuti ndi nthawi yoleka kuitana opha anthu ambirimbiri "osungulumwa," ngakhale kuti ndizo zomwe iwo akudziyitanira okha. Ndi nthawi yoti tisiye kuwayang'ana patokha kuchokera ku gulu lalikulu - anthu athu - omwe ali gawo, kaya akudziwa kapena ayi. Ndi nthawi yolandira ndikuyamba kuyang'ana zovuta zogwirizana za zabwino ndi zoipa, zabwino ndi zolakwika. Ndi nthawi yoti tipeze nzeru zakuya zomwe tiyenera kumvetsetsa, ndikuyamba kuchiritsa, mavuto athu ammudzi.
"Chifukwa cha chikondi," Pierre Teilhard de Chardin analemba kumayambiriro kwa nkhondo yachiwiri ya padziko lonse, "zidutswa za dziko zimakondana kuti dziko likhalepo."
Chinachake chalakwika. Zagawo za dziko lapansi zikugwirana. Iwo akupha wina ndi mzake.
Kupha ku Isla Vista kunachitika Pasanafike tsiku la Chikumbutso, tsiku lodziwikiratu lodziŵika bwino lomwe ndi zomwe tiyenera kukumbukira. Msonkhano wa kukumbukira "nsembe ya magulu athu ankhondo" ukufunikanso kukumbukira, komanso mdani wamuyaya yemwe tinatetezedwa naye. Kugonjetsa adani a m'mbuyomu, omwe tsopano ali (mwina) ogwirizana athu, ndi adani a tsogolo.
Zingathenso kutchedwa Tsiku Lotsatsa Bwino, kupatula ngati tifunika kufalitsa tanthawuzo lake ndikulola kukumbukira tsikuli kuphatikizapo zolakwa za anthu mbali zonse muzochitika za nkhondo - pokhapokha titakumbukira kuti usilikali, monga tsankho ndi misogyny, ndi adani enieni .
"Tsatanetsatane ndi kayendedwe ka nkhondo ndi ndondomeko ndi chizoloŵezi chopha anthu ambiri," Ndidalemba chaka chatha, "kukhala ndi makonzedwe aakulu. Timagawaniza ndi kudula mtundu wa anthu; anthu ena amakhala mdani, osati mwaumwini koma chabe lingaliro losaoneka - 'iwo' - ndipo timapereka kuchuluka kwa kuchuluka kwa chuma chathu ndi chidziwitso pakuganiza kuti tingawaphe. Pamene timachitcha kuti nkhondo, ndi yodziwika bwino komanso yabwino ngati pie ya apulo. Pamene timachitcha kuti kuphana kwakukulu, si zabwino. "
Ndipo magulu a mamilioni akubala magulu a mmodzi.
