At least kids growing up in this generation.

I do believe that sometimes a tone of an article can set people off and they build strong reactions to another bloggers opinion. It might be they are having a bad day and take an offense to heart. All of us have our passions and opinions it would be nice to share them in an open and rational dialog.Victorias_Viewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01618623437870361676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7786112280005647188.post-56363150156701037832012-11-12T14:30:58.870-08:002012-11-12T14:30:58.870-08:00Individuals are anonymous online.

They are shielded behind a "mask" that allows them to no longer feel ashamed of their actions and words, for behind a mask they are without identity. Hence, the word, anonymous. The internet allows people to post their uncensored thoughts, just as Jack in Lord of the Flies, is able to influence the stranded boys to choose savagery over logic, appealing to their inner Id. When individuals no longer have to face the consequences of their actions their true malevolence is shown. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7786112280005647188.post-89625083539298749982012-11-12T14:14:13.974-08:002012-11-12T14:14:13.974-08:00I have found most people to be quite polite, actua...I have found most people to be quite polite, actually, in spite of the fact that some of my blog postings could be considered controversial. And I don't have a whole slew of FaceBook friends, but I have unfriended a couple of people, one whom I felt at odds with and another who turned out to be philosophically completely different from myself. Otherwise, I've been having a whopping good experience on line and become acquainted with some really interesting people!Lorinda J Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16985567506994751475noreply@blogger.com
