[QUOTE=aamirus;864098]yesterday I was playing rocket league, and this guy on our team started raging about 10 seconds into the match, spamming "Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! What a save! What a save! What a save! What a save! Nice shot! Nice shot! Nice shot! Nice shot!" after the other teammate hit the ball poorly once. He kept this up throughout the match when myself or the other teammate whiffed or hit the ball poorly, as most crazy ragers do.
Well, as the match progressed, the other teammate actually ended up carrying the team, scoring a couple goals and saving a couple, while the raging guy was playing pretty poorly, whiffing it quite a few times. Then something very unusual happened. The raging guy started raging at himself! He would spam his same insults after HE missed/poorly hit the ball. It was quite interesting and I'm really fascinated about what goes through the mind of someone like that. Like what is his mental state?[/QUOTE]
lol that reminds me of myself UWu

[QUOTE=yzb25;864093]Video games and movies are a crucial form of escapism for many people, critical to their mental stability. When we are playing a video game and we see reminders of the external political landscape the escapism is snuffed out. Combined with, in many cases, an actual racist or sexist influence, the aggressive outpouring is kind of inevitable.
That said, following these people and looking down on them has become a market in and of itself. And pointing and laughing at these "cringe"y people is probably giving us the same catharsis that the bourgeoisie used to feel when they went to laugh at the people at the circus.
[COLOR="#00FFFF"]P;edit having just reread that it sounds kind of harsh. I'm not trying to say laughing at people on the internet makes you a bad person lol[/COLOR][/QUOTE]
