I find myself (somewhat surprisingly) siding with Phil here. Feel free to call me
names if you wish, but
I think that some of the comments here show a general lack of emotional maturity in their postings.
I am well aware how the semi-anonymity of the internet gives some the sense that they can act rudely toward others with impunity (and a lack of empathy), or even allow them to convince themselves that the target of their abuse "isn't real" to them in some way.
This is known as the
Online disinhibition effect, or more informally as the
Greater Internet F***wad Theory.
