Seriously ? You would Actually Say That In Real Life ?

It surprises me when I see posts on Facebook like the example I've posted here. I suspect these people wouldn't say these things to a person's face in real life.

Of course the above statement is not just offensive, it's untrue and someone even "Liked" it.

I think the internet and Facebook in particular gives people a platform in which to "say" things they would never dream of saying out loud in company. I think people are less likely to think before they post something in text. When you are speaking to someone face to face you tend to think about what you are going to say a bit more because usually you are in the company of people you know.

On the internet you can be anonymous if you choose but even if you don't, you're still a stranger to most of the people you come across.
