I don't know if shame is the right word here, but yeah, more people should definitely take the time to stop and think how their words and actions can affect others. The problem is most of this happens online through social media where they have the luxury of hiding behind a screen, so they never get to see any consequences firsthand. But even then, I don't know why it's so hard to still be decent and engage in thoughtful, mature conversation, even with people you disagree with. In fact, I've found the quickest way to get people to shut up is to remain calm and ask them to explain themselves. They just throw out a buzzword like "hater" and move on.

This. I see it here and all over Facebook as well and it actually saddens me that this is what society has come to. I cant tell if its people have heightened sensitivity which sends them to MAX RAGE LIMIT BREAK over anything and everything, or if modern society just is incapable of expressing themselves using eloquent language and instead resorts to crude word choices. Shrug.
