Why are so many people on youtube comments section so rude?

Replace “YouTube comments section” with “The Internet” and you get the same answer:

People with anonymity tend to remove social inhibitions since there are often no consequences.

so is being negative not allowed or something?

Iunno, but some people equate criticism with “being rude”, or more laughably, “harassing” them.

Name calling is harassment

People have opinions and those opinions and how they are delivered dont alway coincide with anothers sensibilities.

Its even rude to suggest its rude, that your victimising a minority and committing defamation based on your own self regulated acumen that is derived from an installed construct of social expectation.

see its one thing having an opinion and its a whole other being a piece of ♥♥♥♥ on the internet, like during the game awards livestream on youtube 90% of those people were toxic nasty people who just makes you realize how absolutely disgusting humans can be...

You're exposed to people with all kinds of issues on the internet, different walks of life to you and it's often times an outlet for various negative impulses people can't offload anywhere else.

That and Youtube comments aren't generally moderated like they are on forums, so it gets a little more intense at times.

Name calling isn't harassment, it's name calling. Even if somebody is being bothersome, go so somewhere else, a choice you don't always have in the real world as overpopulation etc means everybody is in each others faces the whole time.

One man's rude is another's common social interaction. Up here where I am a certain C word is used like it means nothing at all, yet in other places it'd draw a gasp of outrage.

How so as an opinion is an opinion, there is no whole other thing about it except the barriers we create. The most telling conrnerstone of knowing your a victim of a social construct/norm, is the knee jerk reaction to ostracize, label deviant, to market one as less than,undeserving of the others.
Its strange to say because thats just what the person we are putting a barrier up against is doing so how does one end up in the same ball park. Its a feedback loop, thats how.

It takes active conscious effort to remember that there's a person on the other side of the screen.

Most people don't bother.

No, name calling isn’t harassment. Harassment isn’t just a one-time insult; it’s hunting you across various places (or pages) to keep attacking you even after you try to avoid them.

On the Internet, blocking someone is easy. If they try to circumvent that block, that’s when it starts sliding into “harassment” territory.

Still not anywhere near as disgusting as the heads of most AAA game companies.

At least the people in the YouTube comments aren't trying to fleece you out of your money.

[LostFox]

Because, people degenerate from invariably sitting in the Internet (not all, of course). Reminds me of my first experience with Reddit, I've never met more toxic, agressive and retarded website before. There are many people in the Internet, who are kind, but they are like gems, you have to look for them.

[Holding These Alligators Down]

Anonymity allows people to say whatever they want with little or no consequence.
You find some of the most "special" people in the YT comments section.

[/*?*?*? fatalbertfan69]

most of the youtube comment section is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ anyways

[Daxank]

I don't know what you're talking about, my comment section is usually non-existent
Like my chances with anyone
