    I'm exactly the opposite. I never bother being hateful on here, just coz I don't see the point. I can be really hateful and bitchy in real life (allthough I almost never am... but I could be. I guess... :D ANYhooo!), but being hateful and bitchy in some internet forum... well I personally think it's very juvenile and basically just a waste of my time.

    I agree with you. And that's why I was hoping to try and figure out what could motivate somebody to become so hateful on here. And I'm actually starting to see why.

    I think it's more than just releasing suppressed R/L emotions on a message board because it's easy to do. That's more of a personal thing. Group behavior is a beast entirely unto itself, and there are even studies going on to determine how people who get their social interaction online differ from people who don't.

    Personally, I think it's more of a mob mentality that's triggered. Almost like an argument between several people, but instead of seeing who can shout the loudest (as this is a message board), people are as mean or as cold as possible, to make themselves stand out.

    Maybe. heh... Summarizing behavior isn't exactly an easy thing to do. :)

    There's a book called Garbage People. It's all about the early days of Manson and his so-called family. A lot more revealing than the bestseller Helter Skelter. Anyway, as soon as Manson got out of prison (this was a few years before Sharon Tate was murdered) he hotfooted it to where all the hippies were hanging out, so he could begin his con all about being a songwriter/prophet. He let his hair grow out, and began to dress and act as the hippies were doing. So he superficially became a hippie because he knew he'd have a better chance of being able to control and manipulate others that way. So yeah, Manson tried to be a hippie big time. Even though he claimed not to have much respect for them.

    Yeah, I think the mob mentality thing is worth taking a look at. I mean, I wouldn't rule it out. Some of the more angry threads on here recently have received well over a hundred comments.

    Peace,

    It’s spoken through stingy sage that
    Sulfur shores were formed by a
    Constant river of gin and scotch
    Flowing through a desirous heart
    Lost among the calamity of passion and
    The two-ton secrets of solemnity
    Forever existing, no longer sure
    Of their own mutuality

    It’s been said that one could find
    Beneath the chandelier graveyards
    A criminal of disasters, a jester for
    The final page-turning machines
    Sought among the simplicity of insolence
    And the stripes along the jaw-lines
    Of the breeding grounds, this soil
    Isn’t out to stud quite yet

    It’s been seen through the thinnest eyes
    Of the scourging scores of scowlers
    That the heart of Saturday nights
    Are littered with the hearts of minds
    Caught among the shrill desires of
    The callow children believing
    In their insolence, yet they
    Aren’t the furious end of death




    Yes. I am.

    HOWL

    I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness,
    starving, hysterical naked,
    dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking
    for an angry fix.....

    ~Allen Ginsberg


    FROM SONG OF MYSELF

    I celebrate myself, and sing myself,
    And what I assume you shall assume,
    For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you.

    I loaf and invite my soul,
    I lean and loaf at my ease observing a spear of summer grass...

    ~Walt Whitman


    435

    Much Madness is divinest Sense~
    To a discerning Eye~
    Much Sense~the starkest Madness~
    'Tis the Majority
    In this, as All, prevail~
    Assent~and you are sane~
    Demur~you're straightway dangerous~
    And handled with a Chain~

    ~Emily Dickinson



    And. So. Are. THEY.

    Peace,

    Do not go gentle into that good night.
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

    ~Dylan Thomas



    No. You. Just. Fucking. Hate.

    That sounds like a really good idea. I'm glad you are able to see just how unhealthy a lot of that negativity can be. And it seems like you've learned a lot from this experience, so don't beat yourself up. Just keep on doin' the best you can, and the rest will fall into place.

    Peace,

    ~PD
