    I’ve seen this reposted at least 3 times now, and it bothers me each time because we have no idea the story behind it. We only know what’s written down, we don’t even know if the person who wrote the caption witnessed the event. Was it fragile masculinity? Perhaps?

      I’m pretty sure punching a wall because your fantasy football league is losing is an unhealthy way of processing anger.

      For all we know, guy had just received some horrible/devastating news.

      The assumptions leading to both the ‘framing’ act and the gleeful posting of it on social media are just a manifestation of thinly-veiled misandry.

        Is it normal to you to see people punch walls when they get devastating news?

        I’d rather think maybe someone tripped and fell into it if we’re looking for charitable ideas.

          Yes. I once saw an episode of Maury where he wasn’t the father (and he wanted to be) and he punched the floor while crying. Is that toxic masculinity or is that a person being sad?

    I find it odd that it what looks to be chip board pretending to be breeze blocks. Whoever punched it is lucky it wasn’t concrete.

      is it malnutrition or parents not caring and therefore giving them malnutritious foods? Correlation and causation and all

        It’s true someone with means and knowledge could do that. Something that’s stuck with me for many years:

        An impoverished mom could only afford to feed her kid instant ramen most of the time. Iron deficiency -> behavioral problems. Believe this was from the documentary A Place at the Table (2012).

    Lots of fun scenarios here.

    • Fistfight in the bathroom
    • Some rough bathroom sex
    • Someone slipped on poop and slammed their head into the wall

    Looks like some kind of block wall you wouldn’t want to punch. But I guess that’s just some kind of texture?

      I thought that too, but upon closer examination it looks like dry wall.

      The real question to me is why would you texture drywall to look like concrete.

      I mean, why would you want to punch any wall.

      But yeah, whoever went through this wall got lucky it wasn’t as solid as its facade.

      When your emotions are reduced to ‘rage’ and your reactions reduced to ‘commit violence against inanimate objects in a public setting’, yes.

        You have no idea what prompted the emotions, you just happily assume whatever will give you the excuse to express your misandry.

        I’d bet anything that if you read one of the many accounts of women getting genuinely angry at their SOs, even striking them (which is way worse than striking an inanimate object, by the way), based on what they dreamt the guy did, you wouldn’t be blaming her “fragile femininity”.

          Really just immediately do what you accused me of doing, huh.

      I think some of your formatting / image embed may have gotten lost in translation between Kbin and Lemmy. Looking at your comments on your home instance, there are images. Here, they’re just the (1/3) counter text. I’m guessing that would explain the downvotes.

      For reference, the Lemmy format for embed images is ![Alt text](image url)
