Lately I find myself so extremely tired of people who have to hide behind the most creative of aliases when expressing the most creative of opinions on the Internet. Many of those comments can in their abusiveness and complete lack of respect for the opinions of others be flushed down the toilet immediately. Ignorance should be bliss in those instances, but for some reason it isn’t – maybe because those faceless creatures manage to shout so loudly that others can’t resist a reply? No matter the reason, a constructive and mature dialogue can never arise, which to be honest pisses me off more than a little.
When people remain faceless, I simply can’t be bothered to keep a real discussion going any longer. Drop the aliases, step up, stand behind your views and dare be corrected if you have false information, and behave like the men and women you are. In short, grow up already and make the net a better place to be, where something real can be achieved. The bad people of politics will never listen to you, but will keep calling you activists and god knows what more, and meanwhile they can continue to push our societies down the censorship drain - 1984 is here and now in case you haven’t noticed.
