>Now the web is a sociopath with Asperger’s. If you need help improving your upload speeds it’s eager to help with technical details, but if you tell it you’re struggling with depression it will try to goad you into killing yourself.
>Trolls are turning social media and comment boards into a giant locker room in a teen movie, with towel-snapping racial epithets and misogyny.
> A Pew Research Center survey published two years ago found that 70% of 18-to-24-year-olds who use the Internet had experienced harassment, and 26% of women that age said they’d been stalked online.
>But trolling has become the main tool of the alt-right, an Internet-grown reactionary movement that works for men’s rights and against immigration and may have used the computer from Weird Science to fabricate Donald Trump. Not only does Trump share their attitudes, but he’s got mad trolling skills: he doxxed Republican primary opponent Senator Lindsey Graham by giving out his cell-phone number on TV and indirectly got his Twitter followers to attack GOP political strategist Cheri Jacobus so severely that her lawyers sent him a cease-and-desist order.
>The alt-right’s favorite insult is to call men who don’t hate feminism “cucks,” as in “cuckold.” Republicans who don’t like Trump are “cuckservatives.” Men who don’t see how feminists are secretly controlling them haven’t “taken the red pill,” a reference to the truth-revealing drug in The Matrix. They derisively call their adversaries “social-justice warriors” and believe that liberal interest groups purposely exploit their weakness to gain pity, which allows them to control the levers of power. Trolling is the alt-right’s version of political activism, and its ranks view any attempt to take it away as a denial of democracy.
The internet is a masquerade ball. Everyone is no one, and therefore, everyone is someone. A guy living in a trailer can rub shoulders with a CEO while they talk about some show they both enjoy without either of them having to deal with the typical social norms that would almost guarantee they never interact int he real world.
People need to stop trying to turn it into a high school reunion, where everyone's wearing name tags and forced to be polite unless they have the numbers or social status to be an absolute cock to someone. They don't get that part of the reason why cultures like this develop is in response to their attempted butchery.

"Cyber bullying" has been in the news since the invention of online chat, so why is this an article now? If we're losing the internet to anything, it's to government and corporate censorship of free speech

The people referenced in the article took the internet for granted. They are the type of people with no technical expertise and who just use the shallow part of the web. They have no idea what they are actually using. The thing about the internet is that you can create your own echochambers in which you will only hear what you want to hear. Just build your own blog or make a tumblr site. There you can choose the content which you want displayed and disregard the one that you don't. Those sites adhere to your rules and thoughts and nothing can alter them except you.
But facebook or Twitter are different in that they are supposed to make you reach out to the network. Twitter is just one big Speaker's Corner for example. They were made to connect and show you what people are thinking in reality without social norms silencing them. They reveal the silent majority and people who just live outside the internet don't want to see that. They can't understand the difference between their smalltalk filled RL circlejerks and social shaming and the complete equalization of the playing field. In that their RL traits have no bonus for them in the conversation.

Hunter Lopez
I thought we already this discussion with the MSM?
So do I, but I was a little offended, not because I have the syndrome, but because of how hypocritical and bigoted it is, as if there's supposed to be a single character trait that's common to all people with Asperger syndrome that's communicated with the use of that phrase. If anything, it's just poor writing, because I don't know what they're saying.

It's adorable how the nigger loving kikes created the term in the first place and now want to disassociate themselves with it because it's taken on a negative connotation.
Just like niggers.

The guy clearly isn't a cuck in the way we use it, so much as he is his wife's pimp. Not that that isn't pretty fucking low, but it's a different kettle of fish.

This is only going to get worse as Real life and Online 'life' continues to merge together. Mainly because normies didn't grow up online, they don't have the original mindset of "DON'T TELL ANYONE YOUR REAL NAME, ADDRESS, PHONE NUMBER, ANYTHING THAT LINKS BACK" and thus lack that disconnect of real life/online. If you say kill yourself, they'll take it seriously like you said it to their face in person. Say it to someone in the first generation (maybe childhood) to grow up online and the worst you'll get is 'HAHAHAHA HOW THE FUCK IS CYBER BULLYING REAL."
It's only gonna get worse.

Its always the same £5 for a magazine, first three pages are adverts after you bother to pay that much. The print finish smells like spunk and its full of meme ideas and sex.
good magazines cost about £3 at most and are focused on a subject in detail. not cunts and selling you shit.
private eye costs £1.80 and wipes the floor with the spectator,time and wired (which is now one massive shell oil advert).
Frankly wiping your arse with them is the best use for them.
Brandon Robinson
Hell yes im proud. Fuck this faggy ass bitches who whine about "People is mean to me in the internet" You cant pretend the world adjust to your needs. If you have problems with depression, go to a fucking shrink. Once, there was the "great generation", now we have the "Not fit to live in the real world" generation. Life is rough. Deal with it. If you pretend to cry about it expecting to life getting down the volume just to fit you gayness... KILL YOURSELF.
