Killing to compensate for self-disorder in modern society

Bateman seen as useless

His fiancee is widely rumored to have promiscuity

Don't care about his feelings, only care about preparing for the wedding

No one can really remember other people's names

Everyone is immersed in the pursuit of suits, business cards, apartments, prettier women, sexier bodies

PB goes out of order under the coercion of modern material society

He eased his emotions by killing beggars, prostitutes, and mocking his acquaintances

The hollowing out of people may be the source of indiscriminate violence

When a person is driven mad by society, who else cares about his feelings?
