Anyone who knows about these places know they are bad news and fuck up people for life.

        Listen. We don’t know what happened. We can’t just sit here and speculate that he was driven to murder based on x y or z with no knowledge of the situation, or judge individual pictures on how murder-y the people in them look.

          This is really important. I see it all the time on the net and even on here very recently.

          I don’t want to irresponsibly pathologise but you can tell from <their> eyes. they’ve got the same eyes as <someone I knew who was bad> its that dead vacant soulless stare

          and it’s like, bruh, have you never had a bad photo taken? I’ve never had a good one ffs and I don’t have “crazy eyes” or whatever the fuck people think they’re able to intuit psychology from.

          It’s really gross.

          Agreed, I don’t think a facial expression in a single photo is really useful information to make any kind of analysis or determination here. Even if it were every photo, some people just don’t like having their picture taken. This kind of speculation is just… well, speculation.
