    And there is not a fair judgement without understanding of the context.

    I may illustrate with two different possible contexts, most likely none apply here, the point is to show you that your judgement may not be the exact same:

    A: They are from the same family and she comes-out to him as a lesbian, and that her actual partner she plans to marry has an other ethnical origine. The anger and violence of the guy is their based on homophobia and racism which adds to the physical aspect.

    B: He was a soldier in some military conflict and has traumas. Some flashbacks make him violent. He would need meds but can’t afford them anymore due to life cost rising. In this scenario, the violence is not even related to his victime.

      You don’t need to invent scenarios to justify his actions here. There is plenty of evidence on the video to know that he is in the wrong.

        If you take the scenario A as a justification, we clearly don’t have the same idea of justice.

          Why stop at two fake scenarios? If anything can happen why’d you plop those two out?

            the point was that context maters to judge, and reality behind a video may be different than what you imagine at first. Yet sometimes you may be right instinctively.

            It seems the context has since be found and she is breaking up with him ; I don’t know from where it comes, but that could explain the video. And so it is just simple and pure mysoginy. Except if some has a better source to claim otherwise.
