The title is a BBC headline (www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-67514334).
Giulia Cecchettin was stabbed to death by a possessive ex-boyfriend, Filippo Turetta . From the article:
"Ms Cecchettin's sister Elena said she had been concerned about his possessiveness, but never imagined he could hurt her.
She pointed to a patriarchal culture of violence and control over women that normalises men's dangerous behaviour.
"Filippo is often described as a monster, but he's not a monster," Elena told Italian media. "A monster is an exception, a person who's outside society, a person for whom society doesn't need to take responsibility.
"Monsters are healthy sons of the patriarchy and rape culture," she added."
Once again I don't understand. Was it a conscious act, rage, or something for which I have no term? It doesn't make sense.
