It shines a light on a new breed of narcissistic, nihilists who spend their lives on the internet in preference to gainful employment. They are so immersed in the false reality of the virtual world that they have become totally delusional and lacking in all capacity for empathy and thus normal, human relationships. Yet, in some dark corner of their warped minds, they recognise the unreality of their virtual existence and therefore seek to bring into the real world their false reality so as to assuage the uncomfortable, cognitive dissonance that necessarily accompanies their virtual existence versus the reality of their flesh and blood existence.
We are breeding a new type of psychopath, whose characters are formed through role-play in nihilistic, video games, trolling and other such virtual activities, attempting to reconcile their online characters with real life so as to validate their existence.
