Can someone help me understand this forum?

Question

Why is there so much name calling, cussing, anger, hatred, and many other negatives in this forum?

Is it immaturity?

Why can’t people just discuss topics objectively and without emotion?

And what are all these PODS about?

I just don’t get it.

Answer 1

PEOPLE WILL DO CRAPPY THINGS BECAUSE THEY CAN IF NO ONE CAN IDENTIFY THEM. THEY LIKE TO BE OUTRAGEOUS FOR THE ATTENTION. IT'S FUNNY BECAUSE THEY GET ATTENTION BUT CAN'T TAKE THE CREDIT FOR ANYTHING HERE BECAUSE NOBODY KNOWS WHO THEY ARE. AS A COLLECTIVE, PEOPLE SUCK. INDIVIDUALS ARE GREAT. THAT'S HUMANITY, NICE THOUGHT FOR THE FUTURE....

Answer 2

Me neither. But the main thing to think about is that I don't think this forum was meant to be taken seriously - that's my guess. Although, I've learned quite a bit on here. I've definitely run into my share of immaturity on here which has resulted in cussing, anger, hatred and more (not on my part of course!) I think some people do it just because they have nothing else to do - perhaps being negative allows them to reach some other outlet which they wouldn't get by not being on here?

Well, did you notice that the United States is roundly held by many people and governments around the World as an out of control Super Power? And, did you notice that many America's feel that it is not a good idea to go around finding every suspected possible threat to be an appropriate place or time to unleash our military power with an unabanded zeal that kills many thousands of innocent people without stopping to study the situation before we give them the tomahawk love stroke.

In Iraq, it is at least a terrible mistake to have invaded, but the American willingness to kill many Iraqi's on the bases of flimsy evidence is to every other Countier's people in the world a sign that America really is childish as a Nation and totally disrespectful toward other people in the world, not to mention murderous.
American is not so special that they can continue making one fatal mistake with our military after another because we are to busy making money to notice that other people are dead in our tracks.
Now, all that my seem rather extreme to you. But do you know that we killed over a million Vietnamese because we feared the spread of Communism which was taking its last breath..
Did you know that there was only thirteen million Vietnamese in Vietnam at the time of the Vietnam War? Seat down and figure out how many Americans would die if Vietnam had attacked us and killed one of every 13 Americans.
It is a big number, and for what?
Our young troops fought valiantly, and they believed in America, and died in very large numbers, but the leadership in Washington DC were to busy thinking that Vietnam was like Texas. They had not yet got the message that the Vietnamese were very different than us, but no inferior, not dumber, not gutless, not stupid, not ugly, not blood thirsty but different than us.
Besides, if you look at our murder rate at home, it might come to asking ourselves what we have to teach civilized nations.

There are so many imposters (PODS)on here now you never know who you're responding to unless you take the time to look at their Q&A page. It's ridiculous and Y!A still allows it go on. All you can do is try to answer logical questions with logical answers and try to ignore the trolls who live here. Sometimes it's difficult but after all SOME people on here have to remain the ADULTS who want to stick to the immigration /illegal immigration issue and not stray from it. Some people have no life so they come on here to harrass, instigate hatred, call others names and just irritate people. We just have to ignore it and go on.

Answer 5

I have posted questions on other forums, and have gotten rude comments also, so it's not just on this forum. A pod is a person that has no feeling or emotion, like in the movie invasion of the body snatchers from the 1950's. they place a pod down and when you fall asleep the pod turns into an exact replica of you, except they have no emotions for feelings. It's a good movie watch it sometime. Like Scott Peterson reminds me of a pod, he has no emotion on his face and no feelings if he could kill his wife and baby.

Answer 6

i do not get it, both. different sections enable absolutely everyone in. "vehicle Racing" enables those who hate the game and those that watch it, comprehend no longer something about the game yet want to earnings for others, have questions after interpreting something in the newspaper or seeing a lovable motive force, and so on. "music" enables followers of all sorts of music. what's so incorrect with it right here, the position (i imagine) openness to all sorts is even more desirable significant? i comprehend i have realized about Islam and Catholicism right here, basically through interpreting. this is a superb position to ask questions that you would not dare ask the man in the subsequent cubicle over about. Even searching from the perspective of someone who needs to transform atheists--do not you want to earnings something so that you'll be able to take care of the atheists on your authentic existence? isn't it a sturdy aspect for you that they got here right here?

Answer 7

I dont know.. I wonder too.
Its kind of sad to know that this world is full of so much ignorance.
But Im sorry what are PODS??
Just curious, but Im glad Im on the same page with someone about whats going on on here, but why??
We'll never know
Good Luck

Answer 8

People feel free to be rude and obnoxious when no one knows who they are. They are anonymous and are just venting their anger with the world the only way they know how. Immaturity and an inability to express themselves with the written word just makes matters worse.

Answer 9

this forum and the Internet are a good place for a lot of people. and a lot of idiot`s try to make it a bad place for all of us. and so we have to live with that. and i wish that it was not like that but it is. so i do the next best thing and that is to feel sorry for all the idiot`s because that`s what they want and need.

Answer 10

People have different views and affiliations. Thus, they want to express their opinions by attacking others which not be the case. Respect the other point of view and criticisms are good but these must be made properly with no insults.

Answer 11

Don't know what "PODS" you're referring to, but some people are extremely immature and ignorant... sucks, but if everyone was nice to everyone and there was no racism, hatred, prejudices, etc. it would be called "Heaven".... there are always going to be inequalities, diversities, debates and biases... I wish I could change that, or anyone could change that, but it doesn't look like it's gunna happen in our lifetime...
