"...People don’t speak to each other like this in person..."

Yes they do !
Has and Happens, ALL  The time.

And should happen  MORE, at a very young age.
It is WHY, we are in the position we are NOW in.

Some,  grew up, normal.
They had rules growing up. They had chores to do, they, ‘honored’, their mother & father, and respected their siblings.
They learned how to work.
As they got older, they did a little experimenting , in ‘ideas’, some fell by the wayside, (and became Snowflakes)
most stayed the course they learned, that work, has it’s rewards.

Some, grew up, ’Snowflakes’.
They, learned, at a  very early age, that throwing a temper tantrum, in a grocery store, got them that package of marshmallows.
They learned that, If they stole a candy bar from a store, they would  NOT get  punished.
They also learned, they did NOT, have to work, to get things they wanted.
As they got older, they did a little experimenting , in ‘ideas’, some fell by the wayside,  (and went to the right side)
most stayed the course they learned, that work, is for other people, and they get everything for Free.

“…People don’t speak to each other like this in person…”
Is the problem.  Started 20- 30 years ago, when the ‘pendulum’, of, ‘overt niceness’, despite ANY  circumstances, started swinging  WAY,  Left.
     (Parents, that, worked, were ethical, and had respect, taught that to their children.  Parents, that learned that,  'Someone Else', would take care of them, taught That, to their children)

Today, we see the result, people standing in the street, throwing a  temper tantrum, and CRYING.
Thinking, (because it is what they learned), that will change things.
Instead of, rationally protesting, doing something, having a defined POV, and intelligently explaining it.

Now some very clever people, Saw this was starting to happen.
And they KNEW, they could, manipulate the, ’Snowflakes’.
     And so they did.
Now, unbeknown, to most, ’Snowflakes’, they are the, Army,
lead by the few people that SAW, that the, ’Snowflakes’,
     are putty in their hands.
And will do ANYTHING, they are told to do.

“…People don’t speak to each other like this in person…”
        The time has come, to do, EXACTLY  THAT !

     As the Famous Quote says:
Weak  People create, Weak Times.
Weak Times, create, Strong People.
Strong People, create Good Times.
Good Times, create, Weak People.
