The anonymous comments section of any major media site or popular blog will be so crammed with bile and bickering, accusation and pule, hatred and sneer you can’t help but feel violently disappointed by the shocking lack of basic human kindness and respect, much less a sense of positivism or perspective.

wish this weren’t the case. the internet’s early days were built around anonymity…a blessing and a curse. very interested how this will evolve as facebook connect spreads its wings.

Why are you so terribly disappointing? (via marco)
