After reading this thread, all I have to say is this:\
there are ALOT of white guys that think the same way as Elliot...don't fool yourselves people.
They think they should get every job, every opportunity, every woman they lay eyes, everything basically handed to them. Reading some of those BB.com posts was like looking at a trainwreck...so gruesome but hard to turn away from.
They think you as a black man (or minority) don't deserve to have these things because they are white and by default seen as "better"
So when this kid couldn't come to terms with reality he snapped...but it was going to happen anyways.
Seeing women with men he considered himself "lesser than" did it to him. He couldn't accept that despite his privilege, he was lacking in social skills and rather than work on them...he decided to blame everyone else for his problems like a chump and project his frustations on people who had nothing to do with his situation..
