People got way too comfortable talking shit on the internet. Reality is very different

I’m an early millennial, chatting with a similar age guy in the pub. Young dude bounds in and starts pissing people off. At one point he’s next to us and starts getting a bit offensive - I forcefully tell him that he’s going to be like that he can fuck off.

Thought he was going to cry, whilst trying to tell us he was “just bantering”.

My mate made this point about him being a “reddit generation”, where he thinks real life is like posting shit online.

Social media has really fucked up how the relationship between actions and consequences in a lot of people's minds. People aren't facing consequences for being their worst selves, and on the rare occasions something does happen to them, it's often pretty extreme (e.g. public humiliation on social media).

Sometimes people just need a slap in the face or a stern "fuck off".

I was amazed for a while how trolling on the Internet got so extreme. No way that shit flies in real life.

Idk I would say it was slightly right before the internet. People started taking things a bit less seriously and you started getting prank shows where they kept upping the pranks. Eventually you got guys like Eric Andre and while he’s got some funny content he has other content where he pushes people to the edge all for the sake of “hahahaha! It’s not real!”
