I hate the way people treat other people on internet

Everyone just tries to come in with the most smart-sassy and accusatory response. Even to mundane things about a TV show or music. I just don’t get why people always want to try and make a mean comment about someone’s character or life to someone they just slightly disagree with about things that don’t matter. It’s so dumb and annoying when I see it anywhere, not just done to me but I see people escalate things all the time for no reason.

And the downvote system on Reddit really reinforces this. Downvotes = I can be a dick to this person. It’s so unhealthy and just a terrible cesspool for people who have nothing to do or offer.
