You're obviously been downplaying the harassment I've encountered here. The bullies have disrupted all of my threads not just "time to time" but all of the time.Cyber bullying is mostly something that teenagers are guilty of and sometimes it's extreme. I grew up in the generation that was taught never to allow what others say about you, hurt you. I maintain that attitude to this day. And, if I felt as if I was being constantly insulted here, I'd simply leave. People sometimes do insult each other here, but it's far from what I would consider cyber bullying. Plus, all of us are grown up adults who should be able to take insults from time to time without acting as if we've been targeted with a crime.
If I actually did insult an innocent person here than I sincerely apologize. You're omitting the fact that if I have criticized anybody, then it's because of the way they've treated me. I've been insulted for merely having an unpopular opinion, and the insults have involved name calling and cursing. Never once did I engage in name calling, and I've never posted my cursing at anybody.Do some research as to what teens do to each other when they are online. It's far worse than what happens here and yes, many states do have laws against this type of bullying. Despite the occasional insult, including the many times that US has insulted or projected his own problems on the rest of us, I wouldn't consider any of that as bullying.
I've been warned that I'm not allowed to comment on that incident.And US, nobody made an actual death threat towards you. What was said wasn't meant to be taken literally. It was simply a response to something insulting that you said. I would never have taken it literally.
You know full well that that kind of language offends a lot of people. It offends me. So why do you do it if you want to make a case that I've been treated well here?For fucks's sake...
The laws against that kind of cyberbullying might well be changing. I'm hoping that the internet gets cleaned up and secured so that it can be used to freely exchange ideas in safety....none of us even know each other in real life. We don't know the address of each other. If I were to seriously threaten death to a person I know irl, that's making a terroristic threat in the state of Georgia and I could be arrested for that. That's not what happened here.
I actually like it here. I'm learning a lot about atheists despite all the invective--or maybe because of the invective.So, if you hate us so much and think most of us are bullies, I suggest that you consider leaving for the sake of your own mental health.
But why don't you take your own advice? If you hate me and/or what I post, then don't read or post on any of my threads. It appears that that's not enough, and you don't want anybody reading what I have to say.
I do enjoy a lively debate. And did you notice that this is a discussion board? I'm here to discuss issues related to atheism, and that's just what I'm doing.I doubt you will because you seem to enjoy clashing with others here. Just sayin'.
Before I go, did you get a chance to read Boy reportedly hangs self after bullies tell him to commit suicide? I think it's a good idea for everybody here to know what cyberbullying can do to people especially cyberbullying that involves encouraging suicide. [removed]
