Loneliness, rejection, and the need to feel loved are emotions that we can all identify with. Some of us find healthy ways to deal with these emotions, while others can only resort to destruction.

"Life's unfair," he says as he enters his BMW.
He grew up in a rich family. Life was so hard for him, right?
No surprise, he was a narcissist.
Exactly what I thought

andrew martin so unfair
Getting into my broke down rusted car
Having money doesn't automatically make someones' feelings or issues invalid, but I get what you mean. He was very "privileged" (Ugh, I hate that overused word) but he clearly needed professional help. When he said life isn't fair, I think he's referring to him being plagued by being lonely all the time. Being unlikable, being rejected by girls, probably because his personality and issues scared them away. Despite being egotistical, despite being entitled and, frankly, an ungrateful spoiled brat...he was still a human being...a very disturbed, sad human being. I know life is unfair, but I remember to count my blessings, and there's things we all can do to make things better. He just gave up. He should've just killed himself, and _only_ himself, if that's what his main goal was.
EDIT: EVERYBODY CALM YOUR TITS. IT WAS AN OBSERVATION, I WROTE THIS A LONG FUCKING TIME AGO. DON'T OVER-ANALYZE IT AS IF I FEEL SORRY FOR HIM. Thanks.
@@SunBunz i was going to say something like that
SunBunz read the comment “life is unfair” everything in life is money. You got money life automatically is fair. The correct thing to say is “people aren’t fair” not life
I'm afraid it does not work that way. There are many wealthy people that also happen to be mentally ill or highly depressed. Having alot of money does not mean that your life must be good. Sometimes being rich even becomes a source of depression when it dawns on the rich people that all their friends are fake and only hangout with them because of their wallet and not because they like them. It can become a source of paranoia "what if my wife is only after my money?". But neither of this has anything to do with Elliot's situation. You're trying to make connections that dont exist. His BMW and his wealthy background obviously did not solve his number one issue : lack of love in his life.
"Life's unfair"
"Girls don't like me"
*Dude looks 1000% more handsome than me. But his narcissistic behavior fits r/NiceGuys way more*
If girls don't like him then can he be gay?
SimplyShera same here I'm unattractive
waffle menu lol that’s not how that works he can still like girls lol
@@TheFPSKingsGaming god damn it your right sorry i just didn't understand well.. i had to edited the comment
Damn u ugly
Injustice, retribution, slaughter, annihilated. He talks like he’s a anime character.
Top 10 anime villains
That being the case I would say he was very out of touch with reality. He could not see the difference between this world and Game of Thrones, other stuff on TV, and video games. A similar case happened with the Columbine Highschool shooters when they started to compare their school to the video game Doom. These cases are not the same as a schizophrenic being out of touch with reality. This is more of being emotionally out of touch with reality. If your mind is healthy you could play violent video games and become less paranoid of people around you as you find they are not coming at you with pipes and bats like in a game. I wonder if these people have damage some ware in the frontal cortex of the brain. The part that processes emotion. In a nutshell he projected his fantasy life onto innocent people who should not have had to play a part in his twisted horror movie made reality.
Thank you for your service Mr. Chris Hansen Sir
I’m not saying everyone that watches anime is a killer but every killer does watch anime
Im telling you i didn't meet a 5 year old
I totally get him. After I go for a drive in my BMW, cruising around Santa Barbara reminiscing about my vacation in Europe, I get home to my neighborhood full of mansions and think to myself "I'm so awesome, why is life so unfair?"
+Melody Bowie I was just being snarky and stupid. I can totally identify with being socially awkward, but I think what makes it hard for me to sympathize with this specific person is how he ultimately handled his situation. Forcing tragedy onto not just his victims, but their friends and family, all of who had nothing even to do with how he was feeling. Seeing how well off he was just made me think that maybe having whatever he wanted get handed to him most of his life probably made him confused and angry when certain things didn't come his way. It looks like he wasn't getting what he felt was owed to him and therefore it was an "injustice". I don't think money should preclude someone from getting sympathy, but for me senseless murder does. Especially when it looks like it's done simply because of some unsatisfied wants
+Melody Bowie I can see that. People naturally want to experience life along with other people, and social media makes some semblance of that maybe a little too easy and convenient. It connects us in a way, but it is limited and usually only shows our lives in a flat and simple way. Everyone's life has its own confusion and frustration, they just might not feel comfortable sharing it. With this guy I can't help but think that his penchant for uploading videos of his mostly mundane daily life probably shows how self centered he was. Even if he was narcissistic, he was also obviously lonely and frustrated, and if that was where this ended then I could sympathize. We all know that that's not where it ended though. Life can really suck sometimes, but the least we can all do is not add to the ugliness of an already struggling world. Anyway, I'm sorry if my original comment came off as rude or insensitive, and I hope things improve for you :)

Him calling himself awesome probably wasn't narcissism it was probably him trying to improve his self image and pull himself together.
Yep!
I read that manifesto Elliot made. After reading I just.. I can’t believe how relatable and human he was. Even though he was a sad human being, it his fault that he killed those people.
It WAS his fault. Don’t blame his situation or other people. It was his ego that got the best of him. I learned that he was very jealous when he was young. He was full of envy of what others had, yet he never fully commit himself to change his personality.
The lesson I learned is to Never be blinded by your ego or envy. Because what I read.. made me realize how easy it is for us to be blinded by our OWN judgement.
@W e e b x By itself, sure. But combined with the other shit he said, it seems like narcissism
Yeah but the multiple examples in his autobiography/manifesto where he sits at a park or a party expecting girls to come up and talk to him because he's "awesome" and getting mad when they don't is complete narcissism.
not to mention that he's acting like he's the *only* one that is lonely. classic narcissist behaviour; acting like a complete victim and that he's the only person going through this when there's literal millions of people exactly like him.
"Life is so unfair"
*Climbs into BMW*
"Girls don't like me"
"Look at me, i'm so awesome"
"Why do people don't like me?"
"I'm a god and you are all animals"
This guy definitlely had some problem and i'm not kidding
I tell myself those same things
@Anonymous Person no, you idiot, having an expensive car and saying life is unfair means you HAVE problems, thats what i wad trying to say, it means you have a distorted vision of life
Anonymous Person life wasnt unfair with him. It was his fault, he was rude and narcisist so people often try to avoid him
@Anonymous Person nah, dude was definitely rude, delusional, and the thing is girls and people in general can sense your intentions when you make them obvious. this guy was entitled and felt entitled to attention. He was also never really diagnosed. This guy had Narcissism blowing out his ass.
The only thing unfair in Elliot Rodger's life was that he had a crappy father.

+Teal hahaha
good one.
When he sees his reflection, I don't think he genuinely loves himself. I think he just says that because he thinks it is what girls want to hear.
I also feel it’s just an act
sawadee nigga he killed people it wasnt an act
Honestly reading his manifesto made me want to hug him because he was just so sensitive but the way he talked in real life was very off-putting and self obsorbed. Watching his videos I think he definitely had autism or some kind of mental illness because he acted in a very sarcastic and corny way.
We just needed to get him someone before he lost it.
Part of me feels sorry for him.
It's the way he speaks. It's very stilted and doesn't follow. He's not just saying what comes to mind he's having to actively think about what to say and plan what he thinks will sound good. It makes it clear that he's not confident in himself at all.
I don't think that on its own is enough to drive someone to do something like this though.

Everybody has a way of responding to certain feelings. It's just that Elliot couldn't handle it like others could.

@El Luech I agree
He sounds like Anakin Skywalker after dropping Lsd
That's exactly what I was thinking lol.
He does, although he kinda sounds like a depressed OVA Dio.
He even said "I will slaughter you like animals"
I heard Star Wars was one of his favorite movie series
Don’t do my boy Hayden Christensen like that 😭
No, the difference between Elliot and the rest of us is that he felt so entitled to the affection of others without doing anything to deserve it that he decided to "punish" people for not being the way he wanted them to be.
Facts
Yeh that's just like me
He obviously had a mental problem
Someone who punish innocent people because they have something they don’t have and try to justify it by calling it justice isn’t justice. It is envy and selfishness.
Devoutestson It was in his manifesto. I read it. It made me think twice about killers. It was scary because Elliot was very relatable, high school troubles, his love for video games. He had the most normal childhood but one of the most obvious traits he had was that he seemed very envious and easily jealous.
I think even if he had a girlfriend and something happened between them, the same thing would have happened. I don't know, I get the feeling something was up with him that he never tried to get proper help for.
BenjiXAddictX4Ever Been here for 10 years, NOT a UCSB student, NOT born here, meaning NOT apart of the club, I was walking those streets in IV alone drinking sad and trying to find friends at the exact same time he was actually. Its tough out there if your not rebirthed into it. Usually I would wander into parties alone to try and meet a friend. Of course that doesn't really work and it's a fuckload of rejection lol. I got a job and learned how to produce music.
BenjiXAddictX4Ever your right because that would just drive him even moredo these horrible acts
BenjiXAddictX4Ever I seen you from charmx
The thing is he would have been normal if any of the roasties/stacies would have given him a chance. Beta males are like this, fucked in the head. If he had a gf he would have been normal he just needed someone to relate.
The beta uprising is coming...
like Eric and Dylan my friend

*James Jonah Jamison Laughs*
*Rodger
Now you look stupid.
You serious,
But still loneliness is a sad and depressing feeling but taking the lives of innocent people because of jealousy of other guys have women with them, no. So people, don't throw anyone or your own life away.
@@KingNexusMOCs Oh shit, it is Rodger..I've been wrong for like 2 years now...
Actually I am GoD!
He's way too narcissistic and stuck up to put the effort into a relationship. So that's why he's lonely.
And he never even attempted to talk to any girls besides “blonde haired women”
no i don't think the whole narcissistic thing is true. i think thats just his reaction to being rejected i guess. because why not love yourself when nobody does.
@@cocopus He is pretty much narcissistic by that argument. If he thinks his looks deserved the girls, then its still narcissism. Extreme positive view for something he thinks he deserves.
@@cocopus He was never even rejected though. Dude never put in any effort, and expected girls to just come up to him and chat him up.
Sam Vint and how do you know? He might’ve tried talking to some but didn’t work it out and he didn’t find the need to record it.
For reasons you listed in this video, I took an interest to elliot rodger's case. I also read his manifesto to get better insight into why he acted the way he did. He was extremely entitled and thought that everything should have been handed to him which may have had something to do with the way he was raised. There were no specific traumatic events in his life, but he did move around a lot and did not receive the attention he needed while his parents went through divorce.
He constantly complained about how girls never liked him but the truth is that he would never put forth any effort to actually trying to start a relationship with a girl. Every time he talked to a girl, he would clam up and give short responses to extinguish any conversation, then complain that they should just fall for him. Instead of changing himself and trying to get over his fear of talking to girls, he blamed them and resented them for liking other guys.
he was a very egotistical, narcissistic, socially misguided person who became extremely violent because he felt that everyone owed him admiration.
That is my analysis.
p.s. I know nobody asked for my opinion, but I figured I would share what I found from reading his manifesto because it is very long and I don't think most would care to read it. This video doesn't really touch on his written manifesto about his life experiences. His videos, manifesto, and life all ended with extreme resentment towards the world and people mostly attributed to his godlike inflated self-esteem
Bob Loblaw keep in mind, while it may not be a painful trauma, being spoiled delays and stopss development just like trauma takes a chunk out of the development of a normally developed person. He was clearly used to having things handed to him, and anxiety about getting what he wanted wasn't a concept to him. Socializing is a real frontier, and I think he had a kind of innocence to him because of his lack of social skills that he was aware of, but he interpreted that innocent social ignorance as a virtue. Couple that with cognitive dissonance of him not getting what he wants when he believes it should just happen, and his mind will go straight to girls. Girls, because straight boys naturally have many complex egotistic feelings when it comes to women, mainly because its the one area where they lack real control, and the only control they can get is through trying to be more sexy than the girl they're trying to court, which only has minimal effect since women naturally are supposed to be the ones who select mates (naturally as in animalistically). With all the already existing complex unique anxieties that straight boys have about proving their ego by getting girls, and the lack of real control they have in the process, and their need to believe they're in control to relieve that anxiety and make sense of their emotional drives so that they can mature into adults, it makes sense that Elliot, someone who probably was naturally anxious, and was raised in a way that gave him a belief that it was normal physical law that he usually get what he wanted, and who didn't have good social skills, would have extreme ego problems regarding his social status, and his failing ego would make his emotions even more confusing, and the cognitive dissonance of not getting normal social standing would makw him want to overcompensate and try to be top dawg. So, instead of trying to start out by getting better at easy social situations, he immediately tries to overcompensate by trying to not just be smooth with, but conquer women, as well as fulfill an archetype of an alpha male who has no anxiety, lots of respect, and lots of submissive women, and he will try to convince himself that this archetype he is trying to become is his own real identity, because he is overcompensating and this identity he wishes to take on is the polar opposite of his real self, and in overcompensating he is avoiding getting real social skills because he finds it too stressful, so he convinces himself that being the alpha male archetype is who he really is, and all the benefits of it are due to skills. And like his inability to take on the identity because it is the polar opposite of who he is, he convinces himself that the alpha male identity gets those perceived benefits because of skills, so that he can use circular logic to avoid the truth, which is that the alpha male identity is something he made up that conveniently solves all of his social problems, rather than his problems being his own that he has to deal with in a difficult and slow but healthy way.
Put all that together and bam, you have a delusional entitled woman hating maniac who is so anxious about women and in denial of it that he feels entitled to kill them because he imagined that they've collectively conspired injustice towards him, when really he just is a failure
Frédéric Acord sounds like a pretty accurate analysis. all of it stems from his consuming jealousy (a trait that he observes and identifies with at an early age).
I just wish people didn't think that being a Virgin or not being "smooth' with girls means that you are inferior in any way. That mindset seemed to really eat at elliot and I believe that lots of other people feel similar. Elliot delt with very common feelings and situations that everybody goes through. He just refused to process it in a healthy way
Agreed
Nice analysis brother.
@Jenny Girl Are you seriously calling shootings - like Sandy Hook where several ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CHILDREN died at the hands of the sick fuck Adam Lanza - a hoax? Something tells me you listen to people like Alex Jones.
I'm a lonely, depressed person with autism, I don't plan on killing anybody!
...Except myself
William Elbaum I don't really think it's 'cool' but I guess some people do, but if you think I'm lying about Autism, I can promise you that I'm not!
Chicken Permission LOL you should try to be comfortable with who you are. You would be fucking amazed by the advantages you have over other non-autistic people. ! Aspie world domination !

danieljliversLXXXIX Aspie world domination !
danieljliversLXXXIX I do not think you understand. People with Aspergers have a statistically higher I.Q. than those without Aspergers. This shows we are superior, so who cares about social interactions that much ? I am good enough to get by, LOL. Anyway, as my doctor explained, people that workout their body become more and more physically in shape over time, and the same thing applies to the brain ! You work out your brain and over time you become better and better at social interactions ! Just try to relax and enjoy being an aspie ! You know you can multiply numbers like 235 X 214 in your head and never forget a phone number, so chill out ! Aspies rule !
The dogs reaction was interesting. Wad it the camera, or Elliot?
toRealReality
Elliot dogs can see angels and demons.
Decayed Knight exactly. It probably was him if he’s killed 6 people
Some dogs don't like people having or holding stuff at their head height which may hide their faces. My dad used to have 2 basset hounds who'd growl at anyone if they wore hoodies or cabs. Unless they were family.
Owner was a (hot) blond girl so it's no surprise that he didn't like Elliot
I used to be like Elliot when I was 13, thank god I grew out of it when I was 15. I realized the reason girls didnt like me was because I thought I was the shit and was above everybody else, I realized narcissism isn't the same as confidence and changed who I was, glad I didn't turn out like him.
Eliot the Incel king or Eliot as a person IRL? You know, before this massacre
Thank god you changed
Meanwhile some people never change and remain arses their entire life
The guy who made this is a furry and all furries become like this because they are ugly and socially rejected weird people so they become furries to meet with other people like this i have never seen a normal looking normal mental state furry it doesnt exist girls didnt like you because you were ugly thats all
legit same its very silly i ever thought like that

HolsovanUltimate That reply is over a year old i don’t even agree with it anymore
"Everything was equal as a kid"
I don't know how he spent his childhood but this sounds like bullshit, the one thing I remember most from my elementary days is the unwritten hierarchy the entire fucking school had.
I agree. :/
+A Glass Of Lowfat Skim Milk your milk is awesome... Sorry if that was creepy. XD
He did grow up in a rich family.
I think he´s refering more to the entire thing with girls. Before girls reach puberty,boys aren´t as physically attracted to them like when they are in their teens hence making them and boys more "equal". Sure boys can be attracted to girls before that, but you get what I mean.The only hierarchy I remember from elementary school was the hierarchy surrounding football where the best players where in the inner circle lol.
This is clearly something from the 1800's
His narcissism wasn't shining through while looking at his reflection , his *insecurity* was in a sarcastic way.
In response to ScareTheater's question at 1:10 -
Jazz Rodger seems to be doing pretty well for himself these days. He's landed a few acting roles (mostly low-budget films and streaming shows on Netflix/HBO/etc.), and he hasn't let the actions of his half-brother get to him. And from the looks of things; he hasn't let the knowledge of Elliot wanting to kill him and his mother Soumaya, get to him either.
In conclusion; Jazz Rodger is living the life that Elliot Rodger could never achieve for himself. And he probably could care less about Elliot and the things he did/was planning to do.
Doesn't surprise me. I mean, with a name like Jazz your life is bound to be pretty free of boundaries, innit?
@@simeondermaats Perhaps, but it also shows that Jazz Rodger was born without a serious mental defect, and was actually in a secure, complete home and family. Which I'm sure contributed to him becoming a real man, a productive member of society, and having (for the most part) a secure career and a decent life ahead of him.
Unlike Elliot, who was clearly born with some unknown mental defect, had to deal with his father and his mother divorcing, then using him as a weapon during their fights with each other over money, dealing with a stepmom that he clearly never managed to accept/grow attached to, dealing with his failure of a father who clearly isn't the sharpest tool in the shed when it comes to filmmaking, and then turning into a 23-year old manchild who thinks the world owes him everything while he was literally going nowhere in life due to his spoiled behavior, which ended in him doing what he did in 2014.
Needless to say, Peter Rodger and Chin Rodger fucked up badly with Elliot.
But with their other kids; Georgia and Jazz, at least they've done right by the two of them for the most part.
Jazz turned out okay, while Georgia seems to have dropped off the radar cause no one can find information about her anywhere on the internet.
@@JoshtheBackwoodsStoryteller Oh, for sure. I just kinda wanted to make a joke about his name but yeah
half brother not step brother
I probably have the exact same kinds of emotions that Elliot was going through only probably two to three fold if not more because I am 41 years and still a virgin. On top of that, I have suffered from chronic depression and anxiety since my mid 30s and have essentially become a true loner as all of my old friends have since wedded and found their new circle of friends while I have been kicked to the curb like a POS! I too have an arsenal that is increasing! However this arsenal is not guns, knives or bombs, my arsenal is sporting equipment. I currently have 6 pairs of skis, a road bike but I'm in the market for a high end road racing bicycle, and also doing Spartan racing, my attempts to become a world class athlete is how I'm dealing with my profound feelings of loneliness, rejection, and lack of love. I imagine if Elliot had focused all his sadness, anger, and other emotions into a sport instead of killing, he probably could have been a true hero in the sense that we would have been very good had he invested the time into training. I am very close to my breaking point and when I do reach that point, I can tell you this: catching air at 80 mph while skiing during a world cup alpine downhill ski race will be like a walk in the park! I will have no regard for my life as I see being a heroic athlete as a means to potentially earn the interest of a woman and possibly be a means to make friends and lose my loner status! All one has to do is look at Lance Armstrong. Even though he got stripped of all his Tour de France titles and was associated with doping, he still has millions of fans that could easily befriend him!
+Mc Fapz bro*
awww it's nice to read about someone taking out their negative emotions on positive hobbies.
correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't you on an episode of Tosh.0? If not, I could be thinking of someone else haha
Unfortunately, to millions of people I am one of those supposed web redemption losers. Hopefully, in the future I will be known for my athletic endeavors and not as some loser.
Thanks for giving me hope in humanity. In an odd way I kind of see myself in you. I'm only 18, but I've found that as the days go on, the idea of dying a virgin and never having anyone romantically or sexually isn't as bad as it used to be. Ever since I could remember, much like you and your skiing/biking, I've devoted myself to art and it brings me happiness that I'm sure killing a bunch of people could give me the same amount if I was a psycho. Of course it's a joke now that people who are into art have to be brooding but I have been diagnosed with depression and anxiety and it seems to have pretty much been passed down to me from family members. Long story short in those regards, I've been depressed for my whole life and I was destined to be that way.
Maybe it's just because I'm a girl that can get anyone I want (which is what I've been told by the internet and most of the guys on it) but it's hard for me to sympathize with people like Elliot Rodger here, especially when people like you prove him wrong. Kudos, and good luck in life, do whatever makes you happy, and I hope it keeps making you happy.
what's sad is that even if a girl DID give him a chance, his unstable behavior suggests that he would've been waaay too attached or even violent towards his lover if she tried to ask for privacy.
Yes, if he had narcissism (most likely) only one admirer wouldnt have been enough so he still wouldve been exhibiting psychopathic tendencies which wouldve frightened his girl and if she tried to leave he would lash out on her and everyone else. Its a disorder that cant rly be helped alone but sadly ppl dont go to a psychologist because thy are oblivious to it, too much pride, or just afraid :/
I dont think he truly wanted girls which is why he could never be "satisfied". Them "rejecting him" i think he fabricated that in his head. I do believe he was and had been with girls but because he didnt feel what he wanted to feel he ended up blaming the female gender. Regardless, once you pull the trigger and take away life because you want to....youre a monster. You get no sympathy from me. And people who believe his sob story (and manifesto that reads like a hollywood movie) fell for this narrassitics bastard. I feel sad for his family because they tried...they really did even warned the cops...but in the end... It was because HE WAS charming and charismatic to the popo that they left their guards down...
+BungieFan7 [Little Pip] narsassis only love themsleves and only themsleves. Have you seen american psycho? There is a scene where the main guy is having sex, but hes taping himself riding the girl while posing and showing off his muscles lol..he doesnt care about the girl or sex, he tapes himself because he feels powerful, sexy and in control. Thats why elliott did the same thing. It was never about girls, its just easy to use girls as the excuse and blame everything is wrong because of them...nothing about being rejected. In his mind, no one is better than "the perfect gentlemen" lol. Narasisitic loser killer that no one cares about wasted life. He was so much of a coward he shot himself and thought he won.
+popcorn pop Just like everyone else's opinion, its only speculation..
Your opinion is also speculation .
Don't write things as if they've been written in stone,
it reflects negatively on yourself..
I'm sure you've read the boy who cried wolf, so you should understand
Jack Nipples i'm not.. i said this is just my theory.
Unless I am mistaken, he COULD have had a girlfriend, but didn't because the girls that were nice to him were the wrong type and he deserved the right type (I believe blond hair blue eye was his type).
Also, before he went on his rampage, her had a woman comfort him, I forget for what, but he was crying and someone comforted him.
Yes, he pretty much could, judging from existence of me, a very ugly (like really ugly. like the ugliest girl ever. the only people of whom people may think as of uglier than me are people with birth defects, so i can't even defend myself saying i just have a disease) gal, who is desperate for attention of anybody, so judging from me not being an only snowflake on Earth, there are probably gals who are a lot more attractive than me and who would be so happy to receive an attention from him. But he probably really wanted some kind of gorgeous woman according to his standards
Most incels could if they didnt have the type of personality that made them incels.
Yes he "could have" had girls, but he also couldn't, because he was too self obsessed to even notice if a girl liked him.
@@DriscolDevil I am an incel and I ain't self obsessed, I guess you can say I'm sexually frustrated.
@@normiesaredegeneratesthatn3331 not self obsessed but an incel?
Bud, the fact that you consider your virginity "involentary" is what makes you self obsessed.
I dont have sex either, difference is I don't make it part of my personality and blame it on others.

“Yikes” has to be the most cringe-inducing thing anyone can say nowadays.
He had severe depression, I don't see how he didn't get a gf, he was a handsome dude (I'm straight btw). Then again he might have had the personality of a rotten onion
Agreed!
Ask a girl who doesn't know about him to watch his videos; I'd bet that she gets the same feeling I do, that there is just something very, very, unfixably wrong with him. That outer shell might have been marginally attractive, but it's negated by the weirdness and ickiness he radiates. I don't think anyone with any ability to suss ppl out would go near him, and how he kept roommates is beyond me; I'd rather live in a cardboard box. One far, far away from him.
Shirley Bennett I did kinda get that vibe from the way he talked in his last video...the whole "serving justice" really bothered me...I mean it's kinda bothersome to think there are actually people out there who think they need to kill to make up for the fact they're as mentally stable as a atom bomb
Melody Bowie I have social anxiety, so I know what you're saying. But having mental problems is no excuse for killing "innocent" people.
I get an uneasy feeling by the way he talks... He comes off as full of himself which people usually aren't attracted to that but besides that I am unsettled by just watching the videos not because it was scary or creepy but it's the vibe he gives off... I can't get past that sorry for repeating it twice ^^'

The way Elliot Rodger talks he sounds like a character from a Neil Breen movie.
EBTwitts I’m glad I can get the joke.
Elliot Roger hated everyone in the world. He wasn't lonely. He wasn't looking for a connection. He didn't feel rejected. What he wanted was adulation. He wanted people to tell him how wonderful he was, how handsome, how brilliant. Do not fail to take into account what he did to his flatmates, his first victims. He stabbed them into mincemeat. This is something that everyone glosses over. The women he killed were random potshots. Might as well have been cardboard cut outs.
But he annihilated the people he'd lived with one by one, he did it up front, brutally, with a maximum of pain to each. The fact is, Roger didn't hate women on a personal level. He hated them because they were objects that he saw as social status symbols, symbols of what he thought he deserved because he was awesome. The men that he stabbed to death were real human beings that he had had relationships with, knew what brand of detergent they washed their clothes in, how long it took for them to get ready to go out of a morning, and whether they preferred reading to watching television or vice versa. These were people who knew him, and that he knew. AND HE TORTURED THEM TO DEATH AND LOVED IT SO MUCH HE DID IT THREE TIMES OVER.
All of you whimpering, whining eunuchs wittering, "Society isn't fair! I don't have a girlfriend! I'm so lonely! I hate all of those cardboard stuck up bitches, they're all identical, all women are the same, I hate being around women because they hate me, but my life would be wonderful if all of those bitches that I hate and loathe suddenly realised how awesome I am!" Aside from the whole, "Give me things because I'm awesome, not because I've earned it!" saying that you 'understand' Roger- "But he, like, totally, like, OMG, like did take it too far, but, like, why doesn't any of those dumb bitches like me either?" means that you've completely missed the fucking point. Roger did not see women as people. He wasn't thinking, "How wonderful it'd be if I had someone to talk to," he was thinking that having a girlfriend would make people FINALLY see how awesome he was, that he'd FINALLY have parades thrown in his honour, be given medals just for existing, and so on.
Roger was not confined to Mummy's spare room because he was a chronically unemployed pothead hooked on video games. Roger was a fucking rich boy with a sports car, millionaire parents, and enough spare change in his pocket at any one time to go and buy a modest sized house outright if he wanted somewhere quiet to take a nap. All he had to do was basically to wave a wad of notes about his head and he'd have been swarmed by women (and men, if they thought it was his thing) ranging from flat out gold diggers looking for a husband, to students willing to say, "I love you," to just about anyone because they spent the last of their food money on textbooks six days ago and weren't successfull in their first attempts at dumpster diving.
Elliot fucking Roger could have had a girlfriend. He could have bought a hundred of them. And because as far as he was concerned women were faceless blanks that he could see his own face in, it made absolutely no difference as to what was behind that faceless blank. Elliot Roger hated women. Absolutely no debate. But he hated men more. He tortured three of them to death. George Chen, Cheng Yuan Hong and Weihan Wang. Two of these men, Wang and Hong, he lived with and had the closest thing to a friendship that he'd ever had, and he knifed them to death. Being stabbed by all accounts is highly unpleasant; being stabbed to death would have been agonising, terrifying, and an altogether shit awful way to die. And all the while Roger would have been grinning and giggling because he was finally showing those animals he was God.
Roger didn't snap from years of loneliness and rejection. I guarantee you that if he'd had twenty girlfriends, each madly, genuinely in love with him and willing to do anything he wanted, he'd have beat the living shit out of every single one of them until his hands bled.
Elliot Roger hated people and thought he was God. Absolutely he was fixated on a relationship. Absolutely he hated women. But he hated EVERYONE and he tortured to death two men he'd shared his entire life with, and tortured a third to death for nothing other than this third man being in the wrong place, wrong time.
Please stop whimpering, "I know how he felt, none of these stupid dumb bitches knew how awesome I am and I hate them all for not loving me". One: You're pathetic. And creepy. And a wanker. And really, really dumb. Two: Elliot tortured to death three men, but murdered his female targets randomly and clinically. Just like shooting rabbits.
Elliot Roger wasn't a tormented, lonely soul. He had a personality disorder. There was nothing and no one on earth that would ever have made him happy. He was a twisted fuck who hated everything but worshiped himself, and the female gender was the thing that he fixated on, but absolutely had no genuine, sincere interest in being with or wanting the company of. He was an evil little fuck who loved death and power and hated everyone else in the world, the people he saw as animals.
So wash your face. Change your clothes. Find a good therapist and/or a support group in your area that focuses on social anxiety. Stop blaming others for seeing you for the highly unpleasant, entitled little shit that you are, and start seeing women as people and not status objects that society owes you. And stop 'understanding' Elliot Roger. If you truly understood him, you'd be converting to Islam and sneaking into Syria to shoot and torture people.
Do shut the fuck up you piece of shit. Elliot Rodger snapped because he was denied a life.
Nihilanth1982 I honestly feel bad for Elliot
Nihilanth1982 he had a life, and was denied nothing, he believed he was ‘above’ the necessaries requirements of relationship interaction, ‘dunning Kruger’ in full effect, believing he was so awesome, ‘appreciator’ of nature, an Adonis, so much that he felt entitled to multiple murder, exterior to duty or profit, but solely for self edifying pleasure, and seek a pseudo-vengeance upon a ‘Fake World’
Another pathetic, ‘Holden Caulfield’ facsimile with a blood - lust, just like those two assholes who shot up Columbine.
Thanks Dr Phil for the enlightening conclusion to what made Eliot this way....didn't know they gave out Degrees for psychology in breakfast cereals.
Well said! Someone on these comments say he was denied a life? He killed people, what about their lives??
I think he might have been agoraphobic, because he was extremely anti-social in his thought toward other people. Constantly focused on other men being a competitive threat to him with women, and on how women were not just naturally gravitating to him. This was a young man that really was obsessed with how people saw him and how he couldn't measure up to others. This kept him from successfully interacting with others including women and crippled him even more. Women did not hate him as he asserted. The truth is women did not even know him. He was too introverted...
shouldn't he be too paranoid about living the house? he was always outside without being nervous at all
4besideyouintime Not paranoid. Agoraphobic. Particularly when it came to women. He thought women should be noticing him. He felt anger when women ignored him. He didn't seem to understand that you have to get a woman to be interested in you by giving her a reason to. Its not going to be simply because you are a man, or even a gentleman, You have to have something they want. Money, knowledge, common interest, goals, or cravings. Eliot couldn't focus on what girls were compatible with him because he had too much anger and anxiety associated with them.
Terrance Kenallen i know i know. but in my country, agoraphobia is the extreme fear of living (yeah, grammar, been corrected already) the house/safe space and paranoia about everything outside it
4besideyouintime Ok, I understand. And its "leaving" the house. If English is not your native language its OK. I understand. Just want to help.

Hey, young MD/psychiatrist in training here. One thing to know about people with narcissistic personality disorder is that they actually have very low self confidence, and feeling like people dont like or worship them is exquisitely painful/heartbreaking/infuriating to them.

I know how he felt. Life is very unfair (we all know that), and I can't seem to find to Miss. Right. However, there's nothing wrong with being single. On most days, being single is actually better because you don't have to fear about cheating, you can do what you want, and you don't have to try really hard in order to make a relationship work. People who are desperate for a relationship really need to look at the downsides of one. Relationships aren't always a bed of roses, and staying single is usually the better alternative.
"usually"
+DS The final light YES, usually
He also mentioned how all his friends are out having fun while he's alone in his Spring Break video, he probably felt too shy to ever go and have fun with his friends, in fear of not being accepted. I know this because I'm often in the same situation, where I see my friends are having fun while I'm too scared to ever hang out with them.

@@scumbagm2995 sunscreen. Sun damage is real. And moisturizer.
Elliot expected girls to just come to him as if he was god's gift to the world. He was a whiny little disillusioned kid who only complained about being lonely and did NOTHING about it. When you are lonely (yes it does suck) and want friends you make an effort - join a drama club, video club, join a chess club, or a book club - whatever. Join a place where less preppy kids hang out so you can make some friends. Instead he drove around whining and feeling sorry for himself. So entitled! Little narcissistic killer with a god complex. And all those statements in his videos like "I'm magnificent" make me laugh, someone rally needed to break this to poor Elliot he was not hot at all, he was average at best.
I'd say he was above average in my opinion
He was a little rich kid with a personality disorder.
how about giving some considererations to him his an introvert its just he overthink things like that i wont blame him too because maybe theres no one tried to aproach and talk to him
And now he is alone in hell.
Lol, and he got there Bloody Mary to be his girlfriend.
***** But he still believed in god
Tim Slee God doesn't believe in murderers.
Nathan Beer He likes them though. (Only if the they believe in him)
Tim Slee I'm not a religious man and I don't really believe in such things like hell and heaven, but as far as I know in the Juwish religion (I don't know if it's also with the other religions) every year God writes on his list every mens', womens' and childrens' who passed the age of 13 sins or bad things. But if the same man or woman who did a bad thing to the other person has the right to apologize, and if he or she does then no metter if the other person takes the apologizy God erases the bad thing, and on a specific day called "Yom Cipur" the person prays for god for forgiveness and when the person dies and on the list he got more bad things that he or she had done then the good things then he or she goes to hell and if the person had got more good then he or she goes to heaven and there is no way to ask for apology for murder.
Even the person who prays for God every day doesn't meen that he or she cannot become a monster.
If I'd had a chance to talk to him, I'd have said: I didn't get my first serious boyfriend (or any boyfriend for that matter) until 22. None of the really intimate stuff happened until I was 26. Admittedly, I used to have a serious case of the Nicegirl syndrome for a long time. It wasn't until I realized that real life doesn't work like that and you don't find your guy just because you're a "nice girl". It took a lot of effort and soul searching and, frankly, growing the hell up to get things to work out that way. I wonder what kind of shape I'd been if I hadn't gotten these life-changing revelations. My husband and I were talking about this guy today and I told him about his manifesto that I'd read almost all the way through. He pointed out that in some ways, we all sounded a LOT alike. The difference is that my husband and I eventually outgrew the "life is so unfair" mindset and started working at it more. I'm so glad most people outgrow it with age. It would be so scary if we got a lot of ER's running around.
You made some interesting points here and i agree with the outgrowing from "life is so unfair" mindset. I've had that mindset + i started to hate women more and more because i couldn't get a date. Same crap, "Im such a good catch" but guess what. There was something wrong with me and i got that fixed. Big role in changing that mindset played the Red Pill channel "Alexander Grace". It made me realize that i shouldn't hate women for their natural instincts in finding a mate. So yeah, eventually you're outgrowing from it.
@@capralmarines4043 Be proud of yourself that you had such insights :D It takes a lot of work to get to where you are and some brutal self-honesty. You're very much on your way to becoming a genuinely good partner.
Yes. Even the Nazis were people like you and me, just twisted in all the wrong ways; greater good, oppression narratives, group justice, etc. The road to hell is paved with good intentions, and perhaps coercion too. It has to be for anyone to choose to walk it.
As we keep moving towards isolation within contradictorily overcrowded cities, we're likely to get more Eliot Rodgers than less, we had another similar one in the UK recently. A lot of people empathise with him, even if none of them would actually kill people. Most just opt for suicide instead.
As someone with asperger's syndrome and gets excluded often, I can completely relate to this guy. But what he did is not justified. Even a 3 year old knows murder is bad. But in his defense, kids in high school are almost always a piece of shit. I try not to be and break the mold by helping people struggling like me. I believe no one should go through shit like I did. If i knew this kid, i would do my best to make him feel wanted and feel like a human being. That is what I would do.
I totally relate to it. I know the feel of being excluded like that. What he did was not at all nice, but I hardly ever see anyone actually talking about how he was treated, bullied and excluded when all he wanted was to be included, and treated normally. He did have a lot of rough experiences, which all piled up to make him do such a thing

Does anyone else hear 'ass-burgers' as opposed to Aspergers at 07:56?

Yes, I did, and I nearly forgave Rodger as it sounded awful . . .
I feel like if he had a gf, and something happened with them, he'd be like "Girls don't love me. They treat me like sh*t." And then did the crime anyway because it was just already in him. His thought process had to be like that before even voicing it on camera. Me, I would have dated him a long time ago because the slightly weird ones that are pretty were my type. But it's not my type anymore because they were slightly weird on the surface, having in depth psychiatric problems within. I've even had a romantic interest tell me his fantasies of murdering me while on one of our nature walks on school campus. I didn't even risk going on anymore with him after that.

1:32 seeing this interaction between elliot and a stranger was interesting to say the least. Imagine being that woman, thinking that elliot is just some normal young guy but actually unbenknownst to her and others including his family, elliot would become a sadistic killer.
It’s not narcissism, it’s an inflated ego. It’s a defense mechanism for depression or the sadness.
yeah he was lonely because he was a complete and total narcissist
and super anti social
he was too good for anyone
a human bean
Really? That's not why. The type of woman he wanted for the most part probably dates shallow narcissistic men. The "hot" guys with money who think they are gods gift. It was his bizarre personality that really killed it for him. Shallow women...the type he wanted...love narcissistic men. He was just fucking weird and couldn't connect with anyone. That was his biggest issue. He was a decent looking dude, had money, a nice car etc. The only think lacking was his personality. He just seemed too strange for most people and was probably very off-putting.
Actual case is vice versa I think. He became narcissist because of his loneliness!
Suppose a person who is constantly ignored, cheated, reprimanded, bullied or abused might think himself as worthless. Then the mind comes to rescue his/her Depression. That make him/her narcissist.
Hi ScareTheater guy (I seen your name is Eric at some point). It has only been an hour but you just earned yourself a fan, mate. Anyway, I would wanna weigh in on what you last said, about him being a psychopath or autistic.
Before I start off, I am not saying this because I did a Google search. I have a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and mainly focused on Clinical Psychology. A little background on the previous terms mentioned; 'psychopath' and 'autistic'. Psychopath or psychopathy is a legal term. So that's mainly used in the forensic setting than the clinical setting. The clinical term for it is Antisocial Personality Disorder which is part of a whole array of Personality Disorders (refer to DSM-V for more information). Autism or Autism Spectrum Disorder is a Developmental Disorder. There's Rett's and Asperger's as part of the autism spectrum.
As for Elliot, he is most likely someone who suffers from Antisocial Personality Disorder because he is manifesting characteristics of it. Narcissism and lack of remorse are one of the key features in the disorder. Autism, however, is mainly about social malfunctioning. Autistics aren't often involved in crime. Antisocials, on the other hand, are often regarded as the disorder that often have brush ins with the law. I wouldn't get deeper than what I said because I would end up writing a novel. Bottomline: they are very very very characteristically different as they are in classification.
In forensic terms, I would believe that Elliot is most likely a sociopath than a psychopath. Sociopathy and psychopathy vary in some degrees although characteristically speaking, they are somewhat the same however psychopaths are more highly social and most likely to kill other people for personal gain compared to the sociopaths.
Sorry if my comment is long. I felt like I needed to put some detail on my point. :D
Another thing I'd like to point out is that most antisocials are narcissistic (i'd even dare say that all of them are) but not all narcissistics are antisocial. It's very easy to confuse the two. He shows signs of depression too.
Jane wow a lot of lines
Jane he is eric wise and a good point
I did try to explain it briefly as I could lol
Whats that supposed to mean
There was a Law & Order: SVU episode of a kid blogging constantly about how girls ignored him, etc. even though he never even attempted to strike up a conversation, or learn to do so. Character's name was Holden something....The episode was called Holden's Manifesto I cannot remember what season but Kelly Giddish was already on the show. Really illustrates how whole scenarios and fictional characteristics of other people can manifest inside the mind of someone who is totally inside his head and not trying to take any action to make a change.
1:46 that lady’s dog wasn’t nervous about the camera, it could tell this dude was a bad individual
His dad was MISSING in the equation. No father figure

My dad died a week after I was born. I was reared without a father figure and I turned out fine.
Wiki says "Several studies have suggested that positive father figures (whether biological or not) are generally associated with healthy child development,[2] both in boys and in girls."
Elliot seriously lacked this. Which caused him to rot.
Gilbert Arciniega My point stands.
If anything is to blame, I think it's affluenza and elitist mentality.
His parents divorced
He has a Dad, but they had an unstable relationship

You should do a podcast. Ive been watching your videos all day and I love them!
It's always the shy, awkward anti-social guys that complain about girls not liking them and being lonely (trust me I've been there). In reality it is usually only due to the fact you never put yourself in a position to actually meet women. Women won't just come to you especially if you give off a awkward vibe, it is generally the man who approaches the woman first.....you may not like it but it's just the way it is. Please people stop trying to sympathize with Elliot he is a murderer and there is no justification whatsoever for his actions. We all (male and female) go through phases of loneliness but it is how we deal with adversity/pain that shapes who we are...Elliot could not deal with the harshness of reality. It is just unfortunate he took 6 innocent lives due to his own internal problems.
Melody Bowie Have no help? there is heaps of numbers you can call that will gladly help you. If you do feel this way but refuse to speak up how is it others responsibility? In the case of Elliot, he was a socially awkward narcissistic, he loved himself beyond belief but lacked the social skills to interact with women. He was literally shocked that women weren't just coming after him and therefore became resentful towards all women. That's why he always made comments like "I'm the best, but still they (women) go for the jocks". People aren't just selfish as you seem to think they are, they just simply cannot read minds. I've been there, it's easier to blame others than yourself... Who blamed Elliot for being the way he was? He was a social recluse, he barely had any friends. His parents were shocked this happened, they didn't see it coming because THEY CANT READ MINDS. If you have problems reach out, there is plenty of people willing to help but for the love of god please don't sympathize with a mass murderer. This is a guy who murdered his roommates in cold blood, they never pushed him away or anything like that. I'd argue you are the selfish person for insisting that people "have a responsibility" to help when in reality most people have no idea the true extent of your problems.
+AndrewN553 👏👏👏👏
***** No one is saying you need to follow the "rule", it's simply the reality of the matter. You may not like it, you may say it's "sexist" lol and that's all well and good but the fact remains that it is generally the man who approaches the women. It's embedded in our culture. The difference between what I said and telling a women to go make you a sandwich is simple....
I never told you to do anything, there was no order. If I had of said something along the lines of "it is our duty" or "as men we must" then maybe you could take that as an indirect order but I didn't so why take it as such?
***** There is always an exception to the rule, obviously there are girls that will approach guys first. Thing is though, having the inability to approach a women will likely translate into other areas that might make you less approachable yourself.
I think no one actually justifies what this dude did, we just understand what he was going through

The problem with this dude is that he sulked too much in his negative thoughts. He should've found a hobby or focused on something else, to change his mentality and get his confidence up. He became too consumed with victimhood.
Yes. In his manifesto it is clear that his mind became trapped in the obsession of being desired by girls and losing his virginity to a girl. He had no other goal and meaning in life beyond that. This sick victimization consumed him.
r/niceguys, am i right?
He needs to pin this
That re-enactment with the 2D video gamey thing is strange, to say the least.
I think alot of us have felt like Elliot did at one point. What helped me get through it was learning to let go of the idea that a relationship was my solution to a happy life. If you have parents that care for you or friends, that's all you really need. People now a days put too much importance on romantic relationships like they are the key to happiness but there is just soo much more to life than that.
This is exactly it. In fact, you pretty much said verbatim what I've been telling myself and my pastor lately. That a girlfriend cannot be the solution, just like getting my own apt. wasn't it, and working from home wasn't it. It's like our brains try to trick us into thinking that "If you just get this, you'll be happier." "If you just achieve this, you'll be happier." There's a ton of examples I could provide but you get the idea. Your comment should be pinned at the top. It's like I've sifted through hundreds of comments to get to yours. People really need to understand this concept.

strange how a lot of young, young adults feel they are owed relationships right out of high school. I bet some girls liked him but sensed he was unhinged and needy. I've met lots of guys and girls who think no one is into them, and when I would point out an obvious person's affection, they'd find them too skinny or too fat or they hate their fashion sense... looks matter to a small degree when it comes to long term relationships but so many ppl dismiss potential partners before even giving them a chance. If anyone who reads this feels like Elliot: don't give up. I met my current partner after years of online dating.. I'm not a model, or rich, or especially cool - on too if that, I have chronic nerve illness that make most people freak out.. but I found someone. Took a lot of work on myself mentally, reading "in the meantime" helped, and the biggest help was just finding my confidence. To paraphrase: as not what a lover can do for you, but ask what you can do for a partner. I hate when people say "if I can do it anyone can" --because it's a dumb saying--but I think there is someone for everyone if you try hard enough to look and look and look even if it hurts. Grow, find yourself... and take a good look in the metaphorical mirror and ask yourself: "am I coming off as too needy? too creepy? (in a bad way I mean) too unapproachable? Do I listen enough or just wait to speak?" Find your passions in the meantime... just don't hurt anyone. Or impose your will over others.. that's just the opposite of love. But we've all been hurt. Dark times and dark thoughts are normal and good venting so long as we don't act on those fucked up little ideas of vengeance. sorry everyone for the ramble, I've had a pain marathon for days now and I really want to sleep but I'm into much pain to sleep in too much pain to make a proper sentence apparently! But everything can always get worse so I'm grateful that I can express to it like-minded people my strange thoughts in these strange times. xoxo Keep your head above water :)
I love exercising in the gym by myself. Going walks on my own . I never been in a long term serious relationship. I don't want to be in groups of people. I just want to be myself happy and enjoy life.
Living in this town and seeing areas Im familiar with in a scare theatre video being filmed by a murderer feels weird
also, the area @1:50 was significantly damaged in a mudslide several years ago but has since been repaired
His parents failed him when they didn't introduce any punishment into his life.
Monkey Mutant Boss Exactly. Nobody taught him that life isnt fair, it isnt supposed to be fair. He didnt understand that
Elliot doesn't need a girl
He needs Mumkey Jones

YEH
I feel lonely all the time. I have no siblings and my parents are always busy
KuraiFoox dang well hope you feel better
I feel bad for him (besides the fact he murdered those people)
Same here, he should've killed all of these patronizing motherfuckers i see in the comment sections instead.
Eyeline I don’t
I agree, he was just sad, but he could've handled it WAY better than he did
Yes. Mental illness is an extremely important issue.
“Loneliness, rejections and the need to be loved by someone are emotion everyone can relate too”
I came here to watch a video not to be reminded about my life”
I don't think that's narcissism. I know about depression. I believe that is sarcasm.
indeed. there's a popular misconception about narcisism. narcisists don't believe they are more beautiful than others, quite the contrary.
These three comments are not sarcastic.
I wonder if he had gotten professional help, before he snapped, he might’ve eventually turned out to be an ok guy and finally found a girl to love... or maybe he was just too ill and doomed from the beginning. It’s never too late to seek help, though. Depression fucking SUCKS but there is help out there and others who can understand it completely. He didn’t have to feel so alone and give up. Communities online might’ve been able to reach out to him and helped him somehow. I feel like there’s so many out there like him that just need friends and moral support.
SunBunz he killed himself
This is the most impressive channel i've ever seen , hell the quality looks better even back in 2016.

"Not just the men, but the women and the children too"
I lived in santa barbara when the murders occurred. they happened literally a few blocks away from my apartment...i heard what sounded like firecrackers popping that night, but after watching the news, i saw what really happened.
What's really fucked up is that I had gone to the supermarket only thirty minutes before it occurred, and came back home about ten minutes before it happened. If I had waited just fifteen minutes longer, there would have most likely been another victim that night.
You have to analise the carmen winstead story please :D i think its very interesting
