I believe this is myth, was it even proved?
I've seen it being repeated for at least decade yet it always felt like "one quick, somewhat logically sounding explanation" but is it even real?
- lazide 4y agoThe people I know who go out a lot IRL tend to not be bitter and angry where I can see them anyway. But I've never seen any actual data. I guess to gather it one would need access to a randomized subset of the populations browsing histories and forum posts. Maybe the NSA can help? (/s)
- tester756 4y ago>where I can see them anyway What does it mean - facebook/tiktok? What if you just aren't aware of other sites/apps (discord, reddit, etc) that they do use?
- lazide 4y agoOnly one way to find out I imagine - tap it all! (Hence the /s) It wouldn’t surprise me to find out a non trivial percentage of folks are flaming trolls online to work out anger or whatever they can’t IRL.
