Much of the outrage culture online is rather foreign to me. It’s not necessarily that I don’t “get” it but I simply can’t relate with the people who engage in it. Writing angry messages about certain people and events, having people pat me on the back for sharing views that they agree with and reading other people sharing these same same views just seems like some kind of fart smelling gathering which simply just doesn’t appeal to me. It’s all just meaningless noise. That kind of “conversation” could go on forever and it wouldn’t ever achieve anything.
