Why does arguing with random people online make me feel like a big man?
>>
>>34044421
It's just a way to assert dominance and if you "win" you can feel like a big and strong monkey that might now be allowed to reproduce.
>>
>>34044421
You finally found someone who is just as dumb as you are.
>>
>>34044421
it's the opposite for me, even when I win the arguments I still leave shaken and angry and ruins the rest of my day, I prefer when I don't argue with anyone
I've even blocked problematic people that AGREE with my points of view in twitter because when i see them constantly picking up fights it just feels bad.
It might have to do with my parents fighting a lot when i was a kid and me being (admittedly) very fragile.

reaffirms you're the main character anon...keep taking it to em

You have seriously misplaced priorities and a complete lack of understanding of what being man entails.
>>
>>34044421
Because your dum
>>
>>34044421
You lack real life connections and are driven by the Internet which overwhelmingly is a place full of degeneracy, arrogance and general misery

Low self esteem + low IQ

Running in the Special Olympics?

Because irl you're a small man of negligible value, and here you can experience some.

>>34044527
I agree with you, I come from a pretty chaotic family too, now living abroad and I don't see any of them anymore, sometimes I call that's about it.
I avoid people who argue, I avoid arguing, I hate making people feel bad because it makes me feel bad. I always weigh whether this argument is something that I HAVE to take and stand up for my self and my rights or if I can just leave it. And if I can leave it most of the time I do. Unless I'm feeling extra righteous

It actually helps you develop you mind and gives you a better wit and tact
Spend more time online argu9ng with people and you become a more engaging person in real life.

Because you are a loser irl

Online you have the anonymity to not be judged for your appearance and education, so you can feel clever and superior. It's an artificial world unless you are clever enough to monitize your mouth through your following and online power. It's probable more silly than you realize and utimately a distraction from healthier pursuits.
>>
>>34048172
I honestly don't see how debating online means you're a stunted person, it can literally be done in person as well

>you don't know what you're talking about, you sound dumb as fuck
>Lol ok faggot

>look at you, you can't even dress right and you have the wit and class of a 2yr old
>Lol ok faggot

2 separate scenarios, one online and one in person, and the answer is still the same. I dont see how a screen makes you feel more superior when you're arguing from superiority to begin with.
>>
>>34044421
Because people online are retarded so arguing with them feels like slam dunking on a little kid's basketball hoop.
>>
>>34048831
Finally a logical answer. Every retard is saying some narcissistic shit when in reality it's just like fast food or online dating, you have many idiots you can talk to moreso than what you meet in real life so ergo your ego is boosted when you call 30 ppl retards instead of the one guy in front of you.
>>
>>34048825
>the answer is still the same.
lmao no it's not. i guarantee you look at the ground and mumble to yourself. you are not saying "ok faggot" to their face.
>>
>>34048900
I mean....speak for yourself at that point dude. I've called ppl faggot to their face before and no one wants to catch an assault charge over words. I think you're assuming that calling someone a faggot online is akin to yelling it and running away when in reality you can literally say it in a normal voice and stand your ground.
>>
>>34044421
It is not just a feeling. It is true. You fags influence public opinion and shape the mood of the globe. You are doing important work.
>>
>>34048920
>I've called ppl faggot to their face before
i'm sure you have incel
>>
>>34049436
What he’s saying is correct tho

9/10 most people aren’t trying to catch an assault charge, sure occasionally you might insult the wrong guy and get slapped but some meek dude ending shit with “ok fag” or “fuck off retard” isn’t gonna be worth catching a case over for the average Norman
>>
>>34044421
complete opposite for me. i always feel like a retard for getting riled up and scared that i argued with some indian/bot/american wich would be embarassing.
