[b]This post is about both religion and politics, I'm sorry, but I must know about this mentality.[/b]
Whenever I read a news article or story on this site, there are always people in the comments attacking eachother on their beliefs. Wether it's political or religious, people use every event to attack eachother.
- Is there a shooting?
[quote]Goddamned Conservitards should learn their lesson now.[/quote]
- Healthcare?
[quote]Liberals trying to steal my money[/quote]
- Pope does something good?
[quote]Atheist Liberals will look retarded now! [/quote]
- New particle discovered?
[quote]Ha! I guess those Christians must feel stupid now[/quote]
You guys live together in one fucking country. You'll have to work together to get out of this mess you've gotten yourself into and the only thing people are doing is trying to blame eachother, block eachother's ideas and pick fights.
Why can't people just respect eachother for what they are? You think your country is so great? You can only make it great if you work together, because right now it's spiralling into a sinkhole with no end.

Because people need to prove that they're right over the internet. Hence why they take every opportunity to do so. Or they have a superiority complex and look down on differing view points. Or because they're an internet tough guy. Fun fact: "Know-it-alls" usually come from people who are self conscious in one aspect of their life, and express it by demonstrating their skill at another aspect that they are skilled at. (Ex: Sheldon from the Big Bang Theory is self-conscious/embarrassed at his lack of ability at sports/social interactions, so he adopts an elitist attitude. Also, he retreats into another aspect that he is secure in, such as his intellect. Hence, why he corrects everybody all of the time.) I'm studying psychology in my spare time, so if anyone who has experience in it could tell me what I got right and what I got wrong, it would be appreciated!
