Youtube's 'sickness'.

I find it too much to bear. If ever I look for, say, an Elton John or Queen song, I look to add a comment, praising the genius; of which we'll never see again in our lifetime. Then I see the pathetic, moronic rampant homophobia infesting the 'comments' section. My blood boils and I have to get the hell out of there.

How far have we really come, as a race?

Not very far by the sounds of it Steveypoos, try not to read the comments they make if possible.

The internet lets everybody be a critic, yet without accountability. Those emotions were there before youtube, they are just more visible now.

I guess we all need thicker skins.

I feel that way a lot too.

There's no room for hatred like that. I mean, what does it even matter if someone is black or mexican or gay or a woman or Jewish or whatever? Especially in art. It's the music that brings people together. And it's lame when some homophobe feels the need to trample on it because of their insecurities...

I loathe 'censorship'. We are all entitled to an opinion. But when someone brands another, regardless of talent, as a F*****t, then all I feel is a genuine hatred. As though a race, religeon or sexual persuasion renders all known talent null and void.

Those imbeciles have the right to vote. And make no mistake, some of these are 'adults'.

I have noticed that a lot as well.....people seem to be really big talkers under the guise of anonymity, but you get those same people close to someone they spew their "hatred" towards they would most likely run like a little screaming bitch if one was to say so much as "BOO" to them.

I don't even bother to look at the comment sections anymore.

i agree. race, religion or sexual preference is a persons own right. i may state my opinions in a debate situation but never would i hurt another that believes differently than me. i take a person as they are. what matters to me is their inner qualities of love for others.

    OK, we had a lady who would come in once a week for about 5 hours to be with my MIL so we could run errands that took too long.  (What ever that means!)  But mostly it let us get a break.The lady quit, and MIL was HAPPY!  Now we got a replacement and MIL is throwing a fit.  As near as I can see it she sees things in a binary way.  Good or bad.  Productive or a burden.  Loved or hated. ...

    And I'm still broken.I'm 30 years old and I lost my mom when I was 15 due to an illness known as Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis. Recently, my 73 year old father has had some mishaps causing me great concern for his well being. He lives alone and now I have to intervene. Brief backstory, before the medical staff pulled the plug on my Mom 15 years ago, I made a promise to her that I would take care...
