On killing: the psychological cost of learning to kill in war and society (2003)

Desensitization, conditioning, and teaching denial defense mechanisms are necessary for the soldier who kills the enemy. Who else in society are men desensitized towards the human experience of, conditioned to enact violence upon, and provided with myriad denial and defense mechanisms to escape understanding the harm they inflict?

I used to think I was lonely but then I accepted that it was actually me who didn't want to connect with people

You can find connection with anyone on the street, but the people I actually want to connect with are exceedingly rare. I think it's better to just accept it if you are someone with very specific needs and tastes rather than torturing yourself over the fact that you feel alienated and alone. It also makes it more special when there's someone I truly connect with.
