Why so much bitterness? That’s all I want to know.

No bitterness here. What would you like to discuss?

Because of the internet and anonymous forums. It gets people all worked-up, and enables people to do and say stuff they never would, if they were face to face with people. It gives people a sense of superiority, especially when a number of like-minded people to get together.

I can tell you why, and it is not bitterness. Read Glenn Beck’s book “Arguing With Idiots”. He defines what he means by “idiot” and eventually even talks about how he was an “idiot” himself on one issue.

People who continued to argue, after much data was pointed at them, that the contrail in CA was a missile launch, fit Glenn Beck’s definition of “idiot”. It just wore on some people. It was literally like arguing 9/11 with a truther.

People just tired of it, and for some, it came out in name calling.
