A man thinks he's an untermesch, kills a woman, realises he isn't untermesch, says sorry like a little bitch then gets sent to the coldest part of Russia where he eats cabbage for the rest of his life with a new waifu.

Knowing a little historical context on Russia in Dostoevsky's day will help, in terms of intellectual trends. Not really necessary to understand it though.

Young Blood ices out pasty white rich bitches for $ and feels bad about it. Nigga then fucks up and tells on hisself. Nigra go to jail (big surprise there).

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little SCOUNDREL??? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class at the Military Engineering College of St. Peter-sperg, and I've been involved in numerous secret meetings with the Petrashevsky circle, and I have over 300 confirmed gambling debts.
You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, SCOUNDREL. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of Rodion Romanovich Raskolnikov, mark my fucking words...
