Why are people quick to ban or block because a comment makes them angry, rather than engage, debate or respectfully strongly disagree and leave the discussion at that?

Why can’t people handle talking with someone who has a completely different view who can explain why they are against something that was said?

    You have solidified that you are a weak and gutless person and you are the very type of person you claim to hate. You are awful for society.

      And there it is. You finally show your true colours. Please stop trying to think so highly of yourself and leave this forum. This isn’t “censorship”, by the way. You are just an asshole.

      Well, now the claws come out. Now explain to me how defending my right to thrive and not having it up for debate makes me weaker than someone who already has those rights and just wants to limit mine?

        You live your life based on what other people says, you are looking for acknowledgement and permission from others.

        If someone hates that you are alive, it causes you no harm and has no relevance to your life as long as that person is not restraining you or physically blocking your movements. If someone condems you, by you reacting to that you are giving them power over you.

        Have you heard the phrase “Allowing someone to live in your head rent free”?
