    Default Why are people d-bags on the internet? (Seriously)

    What do you think is the psychology behind people being d-bags over the internet? Problems at school, self-esteem, etc?

    I personally think it deals with being overly angry and self-esteem.

    One possible side effect of anonymity is disinhibition/deindividuation.

    I'm pretty nice online. At least I'm nicer than I am in real life.

    Because on the internet you aren't a ronery neckbeard who lives alone with his anime and Tool discography, you are a ALPHA MALE PSEUDO-INTELLECTUAL WHO REJECTS AUTHORITY, HATES YOUR FAVOURITE BAND, AND GETS ALL DA GURLS!

    It all goes back to Large Marge from Pee-wee's Big Adventure. She scarred everyone forever and turned us all into mean bastards.

    the only difference between me online and me irl is online I'm more confident and less afraid to talk to people.
