Why do we become obsessed with/attracted to people who do awful things?

Topics:

  • The “bad boy” complex / attraction to the antihero

  • Binary of good vs. evil

  • Glorification and dramatization of k!llers in the media (recently, Luigi Mangione)

  • Jacob Wrestling with the Angel

  • Link to article of discussion

Recorded 12/14/24.
