As a theatre kid, playing the villain is way more fun than playing the hero.

It’s a very good point. Being nice is hard work. Why the fuck would anyone keep doing around the clock?
I mean look at Canadians. They’ll say sorry then pull out your kidneys with their bare hands and use them as hockey pucks or waterboard you with maple syrup.

People need a place where they can be an asshole in peace.

This is c/funny, a serious place for real public discourse. There’s no funny business here! Wipe that smile off your face!

Rude. Possibly trolling, even. This also makes me sad.

Let’s try an actual dialogue tho, rather than just me slinging declarations at you:

Let’s say someone is mean to you in real life; for the sake of brevity let’s just say that someone insults your mother without any provocation.

Is it your fault if you feel an emotional reaction, or are you just having a natural reaction to someone making your world a worse place by spreading toxicity?

And if it’s online instead of in real life, would you consider the outcomes to be different? Let’s discuss. :)

If you need a reason to be nice, you’re not a nice person.

We do everything for a reason, being a nice person just depends on yours. But i don’t think having a selfish reason for a good deed makes it any less good. For instance i’m nice because it feels good to me.
