Re: Dumb opinions

[(Anonymous)]

the whole 'lolcow' thing online honestly skeeves me out. It feels very predatory and it overwhelmingly targets mentally ill people and revolves around provoking them for entertainment. and uh...that's fucked up.

Couldn't agree more.

Well glad I'm not the only one.

Honestly some of the people I've seen engaging in that behavior, even here on F!S (certain anons) have this creepy attitude of "might makes right" and the way they antagonize people who they deem as deserving, it honestly resembles a bigger kid pushing a smaller kid on the playground then making fun of them because they cried.

Even the people who bugged me for a while, some of them eventually admitted that it was for the reaction and "if she didn't want us to continue she shouldn't have reacted " and honestly was just....what?

It's really creepy how some people see this as a big game, to get the other person upset. I've learned how to deal with it when it's directed at me but it still makes me feel very upset when it's targeted at someone who doesn't know how these people work.

Not gonna lie, I've been guilty of similar behavior and taken out my frustrations on and said terrible things to people who don't deserve it. I think it's real easy for most people to convince themselves to dehumanize people if they think they're right enough and the other person isn't, especially with the anonymous nature of the internet.

I think it's generally a good idea not to engage, but yeah people who can't deal that don't deserve to be doggedly antagonized.

That is definitely bullying.

"Even the people who bugged me for a while, some of them eventually admitted that it was for the reaction and "if she didn't want us to continue she shouldn't have reacted " and honestly was just....what?"

And this, I don't get. Who ever decided that the best way to be at all times is emotionless and unreactive? WHY is reacting to something assumed to be a bad thing, that all people know they should avoid if they can? It's not like you actually lose something by reacting, like someone takes ten dollars out of your bank account every time you say something or feel something.

I think someone I know explained it to me this way-that trolls were often people who didn't care about things for whatever reason and looked down on anyone who cared too much, and thus antagonize them for it. They tend to feel like that until they grow up/grow out of it and find a reason to care about things again. (That's me paraphrasing, of course.) That actually helped me understand how a lot of trolls work.

It's a pretty twisted mindset, but at least knowing it I can understand how to deal.
