People are idiots. I agree with that.
But you continue to confuse the long term effect of "hate speech" with the simple negative discussions being tossed around on these forums. The two are not synonymous and it's rather tiresome to continuously hear how simple jokes and honest opinions can drive people to hate.
When we were kids, most of us probably lived by the "sticks and stones" mentality.
Now we learn that "words can hurt" and it's taken in a literal sense.
It's all related to political correctness and it's a shame that otherwise intelligent people buy into it 110%.
When it become personal, it sucks. We all know that.
But all the more reason to teach kids and all the Idiots out there to roll with it, rather than assigning blame.
