Why do so many who post answers on this site call the person with the question weird or worse if they do not ?

Question

agree with the person? I think by being mean to or belittling someone over the question they ask is hurtful and makes them feel bad. Am I weird for not wanting to make fun of people for asking what they consider to be valid questions? It's okay to joke around, but not hurt people.

GRRRRR! The way we treat each other really gets me mad sometimes.

Answer 1

I agree with you completely.   I think that those people who use names to make the asker feel bad do so because they (1) do not agree with many of the answers and (2) they do so because they are not able to see anothers point of view (very narrow minded) and (3) because it makes them feel "big" to downgrade another person thus

in some way, causing  the answerer(s) who are behaving badly to (hopefully) disguise their own miserable inadequacies!

Hope this helps.                           CJ  

Answer 2

It's ignorance really.  You realize the more you grow up and live life, it really doesn't matter what other people think about you, because there will always be someone somewhere in your life that will agree or disagree with you.  And treating them awful (or saying bad things) is just their own ignorance that ALL people deserve respect on their opinions.    At the end of the day, just be happy that you are better than that and wouldn't treat someone the same way.  The comments and attitudes are not yours to worry about; worry about yourself.....and those who really matter in your life.  That's all you can do!  :)
