I've been thinking about this just the other day. I'm noticing more and more a lack of granularity of emotions or opinions. It's either I hate this or that. I hope they die from ass cancer and their pets get explosive diarrhea, or, I love this! It's the best thing there ever was. Everyone who doesn't agree is an idiot and I hope they die from ass cancer and so on. There's very little, it's ok, could be better or this isn't very good and I don't like it. I'm not sure what exactly is the cause of this, but I'll blame it on the Internet. It could be the possibility of anonymity or just the possibility that you can give your opinion anywhere. Either in a form of YouTube video rants or by the omnipresent comment section on almost every page of every website. Or both. So people feel that their opinion is needed and because of the volume of such they think they have to make it as strong as possible so it gets noticed. Who knows. But I'd definitely like to discuss this with a psychologist who probably has a deeper insight into the phenomenon.
