The main reason I can think of is if they would do the same thing, so they’re trying to pretend it “ok”
But other than that I am stumped.
Either that or it’s culturally ok to bully people here and if you don’t like it you are the problem but also you deserved it because you’re stupid
Any time I post on an American forum, I get everyone saying the treatment I receive is absolutely unacceptable and despicable. Any time I write the same on a forum in this country, 90% of people attack me and say the asshole “did nothing wrong” and I “deserved it” for being stupid
It depends on the kind of individual we are talking about and the circumstances behind them. So many different things potentially spring to mind when I hear the word “asshole” that it’s impossible to generalize. In most conflicts I’ve observed, both sides are referred to as assholes in some way, which means, either way, you’re going to be accused of defending an asshole. Sometimes you are even surrounded by assholes.
