I don't doubt there are some assholes saying vile things. Unfortunately, it's social media. People feel empowered to talk shit without repercussions. I was just reading a post on the book faces about one of the candidates running for Congress. In one of the replies, a poster felt compelled to call Trump every name in the book. It's social media. And as Charles Barkley put it, "Social media is where losers go to feel important about themselves."
Here I am on a message board. What a looser!
