Looking at the Influence of Hedonistic Style on Violence

Referring to the Big Indonesian Dictionary, hedon comes from the word Hedonism which means material pleasure as the main goal in life. In everyday terms, hedon is the nature of someone who is wasteful or likes to squander money or in today's terms, people who are used to living in luxury.

What happened in the case of violence shows that the alleged perpetrator lives with hedonism. However, what we want to know is the extent to which hedonism can influence the occurrence of violence in social interactions, that there is an assumption in society that people whose lifestyle is hedonistic will tend to do whatever they want to do things they like without thinking about whether the actions taken will have a bad impact on others or not, violate the law or not, or even more dangerously, the assumption is that I am the child of someone who has power (luxury) so when I commit an act that violates the law, I have the power (money) to be able to resolve this act peacefully, of course this is the kind of thing that we must avoid in behaving in society.

According to the Big Indonesian Dictionary, violence is defined as a hard nature or thing, strength, coercion or pressure, strong urge, so violence means bringing strength, coercion or pressure, while the meaning of violence in law is in accordance with the provisions of Article 89 of the Criminal Code is to make a person faint or helpless (weak) it is explained that committing violence means using physical energy or strength that is not small illegally, for example hitting with hands or with all kinds of weapons, kicking, kicking and so on.

Please have a hedonistic style as long as it can be accounted for both morally and especially legally. That living a hedonistic lifestyle is normal among the upper classes, it's just that don't show off hedonism by doing whatever you want, especially to the point of breaking the law, this is a wrong action that is happening in our society, that what happened as above is just a small example called a coincidence, there are still many hedonistic styles out there that are even far more luxurious than what the alleged perpetrator did, it is emphasized once again that hedonism and violence will influence each other's lifestyles in society itself, those who are used to living a hedonistic lifestyle will tend to be a little more arrogant compared to a normal lifestyle.
