My thoughts on people who get hate for stating their opinions

Lately my friend @TheRealSmg has been getting hate for stating his opinions. And he's too scared to give his opinions anymore. I really think this is ridiculous because people have different beliefs and we all think differently. So your just going to hate on someone for it. That's ridiculous. That's an example of why this is a terrible community. I'm leaving this thread open to see how many people get angry at my opinion. If anyone wants to add on to this go ahead.

 

Honestly, I agree with you. Too many people get butthurt because of other people's opinions.

 

I agree and disagree at the same time... You have an opinion on a certain thing, it's positive or negative. It's not important for this example, and other people start hating you for having a different opinion. Quite ironically, it's their opinion on your opinion. Sure, if by hate you define "cyber bullying" then it's not good. But if it's criticism about your opinion, I don't consider it hate necessarily. I consider it a negative opinion about your negative opinion. You just have to understand the difference between bullying and criticism and then everything is fine. I got quite an amount of hate when I trash talked Heavy Metal a few days ago, and I didn't feel offended. I got what their problem with my thread was and tried to fix my mistakes. I don't know if it's bullying that @TheRealSmg has gone through, but if that's the case, fuck those who bullied him for having a different opinion.

 

@TheRealSmg,

Don't let people's hate get to you, if they can't respect your opinion, then they shouldn't even bother responding, reading, or whatever to them. They're just full of themselves because you don't see what they see. Everyone perceives everything differently, no matter what, and they cannot blame you for it. Just a heads up, to all the people who are disrespecting this kind soul, we're a community... We cannot backlash at each other for different points of view, that's disgusting (bullshit) and fucked up.

Sorry about all the crap thrown at your opinions, I'll be here for you, regardless of me knowing you well or not =)

 

I really respect that your sticking up for your friend. :)

Though, maybe this wasn't the best way to express your distaste. Though, that's just how I feel. I was looking through threalsmg's recent content, and I couldn't find anything that was hated, but maybe the posts were deleted. So I really can't comment on that part.

However, on his profile I did see that he said, "I'm being told to take a break numerous times, but it's hard." He came to me for a suggestion on how to handle his situation, and I recommended to stay low. I hope that wasn't taken the wrong way. I enjoy his opinions, but sometimes our opinions are too much for others. Whether we have the right or not, it's smart to choose our battles. I hope all goes well.

 

Dude, thank you.

I got to admit, I'm a sensitive person. I don't like hurting people, and try not to. I also tend to have some minor "anger problems", but they only occur when it's really deserving. I may not look like it, but I like to be the center of attention here. I don't know why, and I usually never feel that way irl. It's probably because of myself being "well looked-upon", because of my knowledge/history on this server. The history that I do got. Now that we're done with myself...

Before that, I have to admit some other things. Along with myself being sensitive, I tend to over-react on some things. I tend to think that I'm in the wrong, when I see someone correcting me. I need to learn that not everything said is 'bullying' or 'criticism', and that people actually are trying to lend some advice. And the part that this is the internet isn't helping that, because all we see are words. We don't know if the person is trying to be critical, or helpful. We simply can't tell, and that's not helping my situation.

It's almost impossible to tell if someone is trying to help, or simply just stating the pure truth. This is the internet. Starting to think, I don't even think I'm cut out for this place. It can be brutal lol

But again, thanks for sticking with me, and this is to everyone else.

 

I thought this wasn't going to get a lot of positive feed back. The reason I did this is because Smg was explaining this he talked about people hating on opinions before and I had enough because he wasn't going to do anything about it. Which I don't see him as a weak person in fact I think he did the right thing which is ignoring them but it seemed he was letting them get to him.

This is the Internet. I don't care what people think of me on the fucking Internet.

 

Totally. Some people need to understand ASAP that there are over seven billion people in our world, who have all lived their lives differently. People are going to have different opinions - which is 100% fine, but it is when they believe that it is only their opinion is correct that causes trouble. Life is very unknown - we can barely prove anything, including one of the biggest questions, why we are on this earth. Science has the facts but no conclusions, religion has the conclusions but barely any facts. Having a closed mindset won't get anyone very far, so good luck to anyone who does have this mindset.
