Hostility and Hatred: All in a Days Work

 

 An outstanding point from an internet commenter, speaking frankly and directly to a user named Matthew Perry who had just sent hateful comments to him over a previous comment some months earlier. This one stopped me. All the comments I assume were ex or current military (it was a military weapons in action video). and the vulgar language follows. But this commenter seemed different. After sending crude comments to other posters, albeit they are deserved imo, Matthew Perry user pipes up again and asks, 

 Matthew Perry user: Holy shit, (screename deleted) you're still going?

 

"Matthew Perry yeah bud, and obviously you are too. To tell the truth I've been slowly doing a paper on these internet YouTube trolls and how hateful it is in America. Excuse the punctuation and occasional misspelling but there either typos or mic misspellings. It is so easy to bait these kids into hateful racial tirades. Their children if not an age definitely in the mind, and if you act just as hateful you can get them to tell you how much hate a country that was supposed to be built on freedom that allows you to do this kind of thing how it's going 2 shit. To tell the truth I didn't really understand your remark about me being a sperg. Bad or good you know what the Red Hats should say is make America great perpetuate the hate. Stay frosty bro. I got to get back to work bro. I work from my computer and I also run a small business from my computer. It's just a small social experiment that I might be able to use when I go back to school next fall it is so easy to bait hateful people and I find myself wondering am I one of them sometimes you know America started off as a great social experiment or maybe it's just ending up that way. But I do know instead of being the leaders of the Free World we're the laughing stock later bro"

 The hate continued with the user Matthew Perry and everyone who criticized or mocked him. In his mind, and in mine, he was a hot torch of hate, touched off within an incidiary comment board with other hate-sporters, who laughed at his reckoning and just blasted away.
