Don't think there is one driving factor in violence. I have been to the third world, spent a year traveling in Vietnam. Happiest people I have ever witnessed. Think the sense of community can overcome most other factors, lose that and the thin veneer of civility drops away and violence ensues.impartialobserver » 31 May 2022, 7:35 pm » wrote: ↑ I grew up in the trailer park where violence should have been rampant. All of the ingredients were in place... poverty, drugs, alcohol, poor decision making. Yet, the only real violence was domestic disputes. What was the difference? First, when you left school... you left that world behind except for a few friends. Very few knew where i lived and no one knew that I was a closet audiophile. Social media and the ease of access breaks that barrier down.
