I've lurked about on various websites/forums for years. I've read the arguments, spotted the trolls, seen the bullying.
Aibu to believe that some of these nasty, spiteful comments are only made because it's easy to 'forget' that there's a live person reading this nasty shit, as it's done via a screen and keyboard?
Some of the things I've read are abhorrent. Vicious and ignorant at best. I refuse to believe that this is the way gen pop speak to each other irl. So why is it acceptable online?
This has probably been asked before, and in a much more articulate manner (apologies).
What are your thoughts?
