Why are most people here are negative and rude?

Just to be clear here, I am not talking about instance, rather I am asking about the whole community.

There is no one I seen here who even had expressed any passion towards anything really.

I cannot understand how did that happen?

Okay, there are three reasons why this is:

  1. Anonymity grants people the ability to be assholes.

  2. You've done something or said something that was going to get people riled up over.

  3. People from rejected instances, sites .etc come here to carry over their shitty nature.
