8. I also believe it has to do with the combative nature of some here.

This, mixed with the fact that they never have to face those they try so hard to crush directly makes for a very non-compassionate give-and-take at times. It's easy to write something vile, and just click "send". So, maybe it's combative naure of some AND the anonymity of the internet, too.

I believe both those things shape life not only here on DU, but in daily life in the US as well.

It is beginning to take its toll.
