Rage on the Internet

Interesting the people who rage on the Internet on sites like this about perceived injustice etc. When you ask them what they’re actually doing about it themselves on a practical level - eg giving to the poor - they call you a troll and block you! What does that tell you about them?

I think it's acceptable to hold strong views about something without having a physical role in making it change. If making change were necessary to justify a strong opinion then sports fans would no longer be able to complain about their teams. They don't obtain coaching qualifications and apply to coach those teams. At best they buy some merchandise and go to the games but then many are just armchair fans who contribute nothing other than strong opinions.

The argument that you are hypocritical if you say but don't do is simply used to derail arguments without dealing with the subject matter.

I don’t mind people going on about it but it’s when you challenge them they get all defensive and call you a troll ! Just shows they are not actually interested in changing anything @SW-User
