How exactly was he being treated unfairly? Give me a quote that indicates a solid example of him being treated unfairly other than being jailed for causing damage to systems or whatever it was he did.
The only thing I see him complaining about is the fact that he gets taught stuff he already knows. His curriculum is dumbed down. This is somewhat true, but that's not a case of him being treated unfairly. Some kids, for whatever reason, need to have these things explained to them multiple times. Our "mentor" here is only receiving the same treatment as slower kids. He isn't demanding that he be treated fairly. He claimed to be smarter than everyone else which might have been true. So therefore, he was bored in class and wanted to be challenged. He wanted, in other words, to be taught faster than the other slower kids in the class. He didn't want to be treated fairly. He wanted
special treatment.
Except that a truly mature person would have gone looking for these extra challenges instead of sitting around whining and lashing out at society.
And if by "cut off" you mean that I was lacing my post with contempt, you are absolutely right. I don't have any respect for people like him, especially if they start spouting world peace and justice platitudes in order to justify their actions. The least he could have done was acknowledge his own egocentrism.
