According to loyceV "If you can be offended by someone online, it means you're doing something wrong" .
I'm afraid I have to disagree!
People might have a different point of view or argument on a matter. You will find another group of people who do not respect your opinion and then start insulting you. The problem is, when you get bullied because of your opinion, you want to say something back, and it ends with exchanging some hit words, and then sometimes it goes to the extreme level when one person calls another a
pedophile. For this reason, I believe you can get offended without even doing anything wrong.
You're missing the point: if you
choose to give someone the power to hurt you through your screen, you're doing something wrong.
If someone calls me a pedophile, he's an idiot. It's that simple.Now, it's a debatable thing. I choose to give power to someone I like and am close to—for example, my friends and family. It's the internet; we barely make good friends on the internet, especially on anonymous forums. Even if someone looks like he is my friend, I don't know what he has in his mind. Let's say I know some forum members' usernames only, and I exchanged some DM and slowly built a good relationship even though we don't even know our real names. I don't think any of them are going to hurt me. Even if they do, that will be a scam.
I agree with the bold part. It's easy to get hurt on the internet forum where we don't know each other. If people choose to be jerks because no one knows their real name, they are an idiot. I feel like I was not able to explain well because of the language barrier.
