My friend and I were talking about dumb shit that we did when we were kids and he brings up this messed up story about how he rationalized his bad behaviour with animals back in the day.

He told me that he originally started with adult animals, doing things like hitting them, yelling at them, and burning them with cigarettes. He wanted to replicate what his parents were doing to him before CPS took him from them to observe their behaviour. Obviously the animals were aggressive and distrustful, but they normalized over time. My friend was abused when he was six years old though, and so he started abusing and killing babies, looking to see what would happen after he finished mutilating their tiny bodies. It turned out that the earlier the abuse occurs, the longer the effects will last. He told me he never did any of this out of cruelty at all. He did it out of curiosity and a sheer motivation to understand and address the behaviours that isolated him from from other people.

He fundamentally believed that there was no need to change his behaviours because his reaction to trauma was natural (just by watching how animals reacted to the same abuse he was put through), and therefore the problem couldn't possibly be with him, as much as it was with all the morons around him who couldn't understand that THEY were the ones who needed to adapt... I know that there's some kind of fallacy in his thinking but I'm not sure how to categorize it. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

This is my 2 cents but I don't think you should hang around that friend for to long

He’ll find out the truth really fast once everyone finds out that he did all that.
