Like everyone I have views that others disagree with. But it seems that nowadays, if someone doesn't like what you say, all you hear is "F U, you no nuthin', peace of shit, F U man!!!" instead of an actual, coherent rebuttals. Sad times.

And it's happening on both sides apparently. I've given some reasoned comments even here on GAW and gotten called names... usually misspelled and semi-literate, but still... I think it's the anonymity of the internet that encourages people to be buffoons. If they were posting under their real names, with real street addresses and email addresses attached, you'd see a lot more civil interaction. Unfortunately it's the base characteristic of the human species. Oh, and don't discount that a lot of those replies might be bots or paid shills. The latter are often given away by their low understanding of the English language and basic spelling, and zero grasp of logic.
You make many good points here. Have an updoot.
There is no "actual, coherent rebuttal", that's why the response is only an angry retort or insult. It's cognitive dissonance. They can't help it.
I call it "hitting the brainwashing wall" People get aggressive when you attack their perspective of the world and they cant explain their reasoning.
Yeah, Cognitive dissonance resultiing in aggression sometimes violence.
You don't even have to attack them. They know, at least on a subliminal level, that their 'reasoning' is flawed. Simply reading something that brings the flaws to light creates fear (anxiety/anger), which feels like an attack to them, and their reaction is to lash out at the one who set the fear in motion.
It is a vulgar, sinful and totally immoral world. God cannot be pleased with what He sees. He has always taken strong action in the past when mankind does not follow Him. Now is no different. Trust in God.
You noticed it, too? Civil discourse disappeared with the advent of social media.
I think a lot of it would end if people had to use their real names and short bios on every platform.
But just for fun, I picture in my mind what would happen to a majority of this world's population if the internet and cell towers actually did go down for an extended period of time.
Can you imagine the hysteria and chaos?
After 24 hours without their "connections" I picture them walking around like "The Walking Dead" zombies.?
No where to go. No one to publically hate. No one to shill. No one to listen to them. No one to share their idiotic pictures and videos with.
How many would be begging the older generation on how to use a rotary phone? ☎
How shocked they would be to discover it's limited range and NO camera! The look on their faces would be priceless!?
Can you imagine walking into a store and people were forced to talk to each other without a phone in their hand?
And then I wake up and everyone still has their face in their phone, ignoring the world as it passes them by.?
I came looking for this. ?
and fark you too
