It anonymity of the internet allows these sad people the outlet they have never previously had. The classic troll seems to be a socially inept loner who lives with his or her parents. These people would simply have existed a few decades ago - but now social media gives them the power to shock and offend with little chance of any comeback.
They exist in an environment with practically no social cues as to “normal behaviour” so perhaps it is not surprising these social misfits seek to have an impact.  |
why do people read such messages? Why not restrict who can see your "facebook" stuff and who can comment.
We know there are nasty people about so stay away from it. There are those that get a kick out of being nasty.
