“When you're born in a burning house, you think the whole world is on fire.” I think this quote fits really well to this type of trauma

[@GeorgiaDow]

great quote thank you for sharing it

[@alexdinu589]

Butcher's flashback and his backstory was so powerfull, I'm sure if lenny was still alive butcher would've killed their father in front of him to show how sorry he is Also I loved atrain's redemption arc or the begginig of it he basicly has to rewatch his actions from the other side

[@GeorgiaDow]

I felt so deeply when he told himself not to leave that it wouldn't be okay.

[@trinaq]

Butcher may be rough around the edges, and be hellbent on revenge against the Seven and Vought, but when you learn about his traumatic past, you just want to give him a hug and reassure him.

[@GeorgiaDow]

I feel the same way. I can see his hurt and want to comfort him also, he is guarded but his heart is on his sleeve

[@SevenZeroEleven]

And then he has the feeling of defeat. Seeing Ryan pick Homelander over him in the finale is when it breaks, his urge for revenge drops. He dosent care anymore, he dosent even see Homelander as a threat, he just moves on to the next big bad, which is Nadia who is now the VP

[@caseyhart4999]

I can just imagine a random person going up to butcher and trying to give him a hug and he just puts his hand on their chest and is just like “back up ya cunt” lol

So, I'm a cop, and I can't begin to thank you enough for this video. Generational trauma is something I see every day. I'm not smart enough or educated enough to speak on this subject the same way you do, but it's real, I've seen it. Lived it. Have almost been killed by it. I've seen it in fellow cops as well as gangsters. Just two of the many different reactions to generational trauma.

Thank you for your work in keeping us safe and. I hope you stay that way. It is a good thing that you recognize that it’s usually trauma and pain which causes us to do things we shouldn’t most of the time. Stay safe

Butcher is perhaps one of the most truly human characters in recent years.

[@paulbrigham359]

Would think that psychological trauma would lead to physiological responses like in persistently elevated cortisol that could become cortisol resistance. Cortisol levels and insulin levels are also linked. Insulin resistance = reduced lifespan as it is connected to many diseases. Mal-adaptive responses would also be negative for telomeres.

Butcher's past is so sad. The amount of guilt he feels for what happened to his brother Lenny plus he is still probably grieving the death of Becca and now seeing Ryan choose Homelander...the man needs a hug. Great analysis as usual. So interesting

[@SeyhawksNow]

I didn't go through nearly as much as Butcher but he and Hughie are some of the characters I've empathized with the most in recent years. Same with Jinx.

[@jerald2973]

Coming from an abusive childhood I definitely felt Billy not feeling like he deserves to be forgiven for things outside of his control, your breakdowns are always on point

[@DavisXero]

Honestly I teared up watching butchers flashback. I had to leave the same kind of abuse in basically the same manner as butcher. Having to tell my sister “he loves you he doesn’t hurt you, but if I stay, one of us is going to die” is not something anyone should ever have to experience.

I love how Georgia bases her outfit off the charater shes talking about! Great vid!

Thank you!! i do try, some are better than others

[@bourne2crimson397]

I actually have a friend exactly like this. They were abused viciously by their father, and it's clear to anyone they have baggage. They're an enigma by and large because they can show protectiveness, loyalty, even compassion, but most of the time, they can be damn ruthless. If you push a button, even by accident, they can verbally tear apart your insecurities. They can lie very well, having done it with teachers and other authority figures. They have massive anger issues. They can bear a grudge for maybe the rest of their life. They fought a lot as a kid, and are damn smart too. Despite this, they seemed to really hate bullies (despite being kind of a bully themself). They seemed to hate being alone. They were over at my house a lot, and most surprising, they were more respectful to my mom than anyone else. From what they told me, they're in therapy nowadays. If so, good on them.

[@RamzalTimble]

Heavily physically abused from a young age. It’s hard to explain to others how it works when my mood changes but this is spot on. I feel as though I’m being the very thing that had hurt me when I was a child. It feels as though even when I try to give people warnings of “you are on mighty thin ice right now”, I can still see the confusion and fear on peoples faces from the tone of my voice and stern words.

[@GeorgiaDow]

It is a terrible thing and generational trauma is a hard cycle to break. I hope you find your peace and take the time to let yourself heal from it all when you are ready to. Thank you for sharing some of your story. It helps others know they are not alone

[@SplashAttackTCG]

This hit my nail right on the head. I was physically and verbally abused so badly when I was little I ended up packing up a little bag and running away from home.

How does someone who decided the "flight" option when they were a child who faced trauma deal with it as an adult? And what sort of attachments do they form?

[@drunkeldian3150]

For another potential The Boys video idea I'd love to see you do a video on Maeve and all the trauma she goes through throughout the first 3 seasons since it seems like her character arc wrapped up this season.

[@the_sixxness]

Watching Billy interact with his brother and father it made me realize why Billy fights the Supers. Billy hates bullies. He hates people who abuse power. He sees the Supers as bullies that need to be put in check.

[@interviolet6675]

Your formative years can shape how you see the world My view is f****** scary Past a certain point my dad became an alcoholic and my mom was a drug addict. So they would sell my stuff just to get more messed up. Seeing my father convulse in withdrawal seizures is something i'll always remember as a kid. I didn't have tics before but I developed them when I got older It's hard to act normal when you remember the things you should forget. It's hard when you forget the things you should remember

[@GeorgiaDow]

im sorry that happened to you, yes it changes your outlook in the world. I hope you have given yourself the space to work through this

[@m3rrys0ngstr3ss]

I know I've heard of telomeres in relation to aging - makes me wonder if a Butcher who hadn't been through this would look younger.

[@ramonantoniodejuanbennett6239]

Yes. The effect of shortening of telomeres due to severe psychological factors are what coined the phrases " Been thru alot" and " Had a hard life". This is also a major part of what we call "STRESS".

[@aMoodyHipster]

Love how they show'd the cycle of violence playing out during Butcher's mindstorm trip by editing the scene of Butcher's father beating him and the scene of Butcher killing Gunpowder together

[@TehMegaSnakeFan]

Thank you for this video, both for its nerdy pop culture value and its educational and honestly therapeutical value. I was raised by a single parent, my mum, who was deeply mentally ill and had a lifetime of severe trauma. I was raised my whole life being led to believe i was a bad kid, its only been through talking to my wife in these last few years that ive realised i was abused. My mum screamed and swore and threatened me almost every day, she punished me every week, she hit me every fortnight. She would abandon me to live with other family members for a month whenever she couldnt handle me. And my entire life ive had extreme anger issues, i started anger management therapy when i was 4 years old. I feel like im constantly only 5 seconds away from rage and my mum led me to believe my whole life that i inherited my anger genetically from my dad. But these days i know that my anger developed as my self defense mechanism against my mum. Nothing gets me angrier quicker than someone shouting at me or giving me attitude, and i know now its because its the defense i developed as a little kid to try and hold my own against my always aggressive mother. I hate my anger, i hate snapping at the people i love, i hate that in a room all by myself i can still get so angry i want to scream. But im getting better, im getting better for my wife and for the kids we hope to have. And i don't resent my mother, i now suffer with many of the mental health problems she does and i can't imagine what it would be like to raise a child alone, on welfare, during a 15 year long mental health crisis. She did the best she knew how to do, and now its my job to do better for the people i love.

I was four years old when i was abused and it makes you more aggressive, anxious and untrusting. Anxiety, ptsd and depression...made it hard to connect to people. Yep, when I was a teenager I physically removed my mom's ex boyfriend from her house. Getting in fights and veing the outcast really hardens the heart. I don't tolerate disrespect. Now I'm in my late 30s (and Happily married) I'm healing that. Butcher is a complex character that I find relatable.

[@ptolemeeselenion1542]

An interesting video essay.

[@fox-fluffl9002]

Butcher reminds me a lot of my younger self. Growing up I had extreme anger issues, especially after my parents separated and my sister and I started switching houses every week. My birther was an alcoholic with her own unhealed trauma that led to all sorts of verbal and emotional abuse. By the time I was in Middle school I'd gone to the principal's four times for threatening or attacking another student who was bullying me (not a lot, I know, but I was also terrified to get in trouble because my birther had spanked and yelled at me to the point of tears in the past). Now that I'm a little older I've mellowed out a lot and don't express anger very often -- I can still blow up, but I'm far less likely to threaten or hurt others -- and do my best not to treat others as I was. I don't like causing pain, and are pretty much a pacifist when people cause problems for me if I can help it. Butcher still shines through sometimes, in that I'm extremely protective of the people I love, which apparently is pretty scary to see according to the one time I felt the need to step in. I still sometimes fall into those behaviors, especially if I get frustrated, but it always makes me feel guilty and terrified I'm turning into my birther. Butcher is such a relatable character, and while I can't really watch the show properly I enjoy seeing all his facets and complexities

While I overall did not enjoy the boys, I did enjoy the ways in which it explored the impacts of trauma on an individual. Butcher's self loathing and perpetual fear of hurting people or becoming his father mirrors my own. Being victimized is horrible thing to experience. Victimizing another in the same way you were can hurt a great deal as well. While in the former case you can take some comfort knowing those things aren't your fault. In the latter I at least can't or won't give myself that out.

I deeply understand the childhood trauma aspect of this, since it's something my brother and I experienced as kids. My father was emotionally, mentally, and verbally abusive to the whole family and still is till this day as an old man. I shut down instead speaking up and making sure my feelings are heard and validated. I made a promise to myself when I was small to never be like my father and to this day still trying to unlearn all the anger and hate. The biggest insult someone can say to me is that I'm just like my dad, just as the biggest compliment someone can give me is to say I'm just like my mom.
