  1. Thanks for honoring my freedom of speech. By allowing people to hide their real names under pseudonyms ... news media outlets and podcaster make the big bucks. If all of us were forced to use our own real names in order to post hateful sentiments about each other... who of us would want our vicious natures exposed to the whole world? Advertising such vicious language on social media sites wouldn't make us "look good" when interviewing for jobs ... would it? If new media outlets made it mandatory to use given names rather than pseudo-names ... the treatment of others on these media sites would automatically be dull and totally boring. For the news outlets such rules would not BE profitable. We not only approve when negative news is about others ... but because of our nasty natures ... we THRIVE on negative news ... about others. The fact that the news is almost always negative ... says everything ABOUT our nasty human natures. And if you notice ... I include my own nasty nature as part and parcel of how those who run the new media outlets ... and all the rest of us ... are always thankful when it is others that are doing the suffering ... rather than us... as we all suffer from the nasty mental syndrome of Schadenfreude.
