I am a little confused, did you quote me as inspiration to talk about other people or did you feel that my quote sounded like these people:

If so, that wasn't my intention, since I agree with you:

I would say there aren't many things that I wouldn't make fun of in some way but inciting violence as part of a "joke" is definitely a no-go—kind of weird that I am even writing this.

I also absolutely hate a lot of these prank videos online. Even people who watch them make me sick since they already gave these people what they want: your click and your attention. So I am also kind of sick myself since by definition, I also watched some of them. They are just clicks on the expense of other people. People don't even need anonymity on the internet to be fuckwads. Enough clicks and attention can apparently compensate for the lack of anonymity of some actions.

But I get it. It's like watching an accident happen in real time. And social media addiction kind of makes people forget about decency. The first thing that often comes into mind is often: "I can post this on social media!"¹

I am not sure if it really became worse thanks to social media (or the internet in general) or if the internet just makes us more aware of what always was the case. For example, I really like this clip of a German police officer:

Apparently there are still two such listening nodes on the network.
