    It's crazy how difficult it is to pinpoint the moment his journal entries go from relatively normal to completely unhinged incel ranting. Even hearing them all side by side I still can't pick it out.

      “You’re only as healthy as you feel.” In my opinion, that’s the point.

      I feel like it starts out pretty extreme. In his first entry he’s already talking about the day a “real rain” comes around to wash away the filth. Generally speaking, most people who have reached the point of wishing bloody vengeance on society as a whole are already dancing on the periphery of extreme, in my opinion at least.

      Maybe because he had to suffer so much to prevail in the end, like an Aristotelian 'tragic hero'

    “I think i got stomach cancer”

    If you think it is difficult to pinpoint the exact "breaking point"....It is when she refused to take his calls. Listen to what he said. "I think I got stomach cancer. You're only as healthy as you feel."
    He obviously wasn't well, or at least wasn't feeling well. The very next journal entry, he had begun to vilify her, saying, "She is just like the others."
    This is Travis placing blame anywhere except on his own shoulders. He then (wrongly) projects his anger toward Palentine. All while trying to play Captain-Save-A-Ho with little Miss Foster.
    Betsy called it...The man was a walking contradiction.

    Don't even have the discipline to make journal entries. Maybe im just not interesting, but I respect the grind

      Don’t make journalling about discipline, makes it feel more like a chore than something you want to do, you should journal when you need to get your thoughts and feelings out
