@BenEC78  - People are scared to even be themselves in public so they vent on a keyboard. It is sad. In short I think a lot of people who seem good really are not. But we are all only human so it's no shocker".

Well said, I would blame it primarily on political correctness. The more PC a society, the more people are afraid to me themselves in public, which then leads to pent up feelings and venting on a keyboard. It also brings out the nuckle dragging crowd on websites like Youtube and IMDB.

@BenEC78 yeah your right... But still I'm happy that in America religious and political wars are fought through comments then having people kill and maim each other in real life like they do in 3rd world countries and history

@ChristinaWolfle It seems to me that many have been conditioned to behave in an acceptable way in American society so they smile and mind their own business. It is hard to even have an intelligent or thoughtful conversation with anyone face to face. Religion and politics aren't to be discussed. People are scared to even be themselves in public so they vent on a keyboard. It is sad. In short I think a lot of people who seem good really are not. But we are all only human so it's no shocker.

@Nigelxman

I was not being completely literal, but I do give the comments credence because it tells me what people really think and feel. For the most part it seems to be negative. People are cruel, egotistical, argumentative and indifferent when they are behind a screen. People say things they wouldn't dare say to anyone, but truthfully that's what makes it interesting. It's a social experiment that I don't particularly like the overall results of.

@BenEC78 Amazing that you give them that much creedence. Says a lot.
