Why can't people be kind in games and specially in discussion forums

[hunuman]

Why be a keyboard warrior
Why produce so much of NaCl
Why so much of hatred and negativity
Why can't we be good and just produce points instead of cursing people thoughts with negativity
Just why???

[Phantom]

They can.

They just don't want to.

[Blank]

Because the internet allows for anonymity.

Solipsistic introjection.

All the things pertaining to online trolling.

[Blargo]

Because humans are generally aggressive.

It's beacuse every person sees the world and its people different, trying to entertain themselves with twisted habits of their own by trying to make conflicts or being salty towards others, or just simply trolling us, its something that always existed and will continue to exist as we grow older, but I fear it's just going to get even worse than it is now. And it cannot be stopped or they dont want it to be stopped, just beacuse people are "bored" . Thats my conclusion on this topic. If you agree, that's fine and even if you dont, I'll get through it. Thank you for reading

I used to know this chick, quite the fruit loop. One day she's on a ramble, with a very tight grip around me. She said something akin to:
Everything we see is but a mirror
a reflection
I am you and you are me
what I see is what I am
what you see is what you are
we are all we've seen
the world reflects ourselves back at us
everything is a mirror

But within that fruitcake rambling, there is wisdom.

Some people forget that behind the screen, there is an actual person there. They see the people that they target as nothing more than faceless names that react to them.

Yeah. This is the internet. Of course their bad behaviour don't get noticed in real life. But what they've got to know is as stated in a Gospel: you may continue to lie, but it's flaws will eventually reveal the truth (or somewhere among those lines).

Because people have issues they don't want to face and letting their emotions out with an object such as a computer can make them feel better even if just for a moment and as long as they feel disconnected enough from the reality that there's a real person behind every (genuine) profile.

Yeah. That too...

I'm not sure that is being a fruitcake. Quite a few famous philosophers don't make nearly that much sense.

[Sirens]

"Because it's the internet," as in people are free to disrespect others on their lifestyle + beliefs without facing consequences for it.
It's quite depressing how this is widely accepted nowadays.

[River]

Sometimes people need telling they are just saying wrong think. Or being spoiled children (For instance all the people spamming stardew with multiplayer demands).

[Dyne]

Because people like you keep making threads like these

[Sixtyfivekills]

You make it sound like it's a bad thing.

I find them incredibly amusing for some reason.
