(62,325 posts)mean. I will say this, I see far more mature behavior there, in fact, far more among the kindergartners and first graders I teach, than I see in online forums.
Sure there are still the good old frat boys and the rightwing morons on college campuses who think that taunting and mocking others is fun, but this is not a college campus and it is not a rightwing forum which is why that kind of behavior is so remarkable when it occurs here. Iow, you don't expect to see it here.
When I want to see it, I go back to my old online hangout which has been mostly taken over by rightwingers. There I expect to see this kind of thing and I am never disappointed. Just sad to see so little empathy among people on the left. That of course, takes strength, something lacking altogether on the right.
