72 Unhinged People Who Really Should Keep Their Thoughts To Themselves Instead Of Sharing Them On Social Media
Some people hide their ignorance well. Others really don't. Instead, they display it - loud and proud - for all the world to see. It just takes a quick scroll through social media to prove that there's no shortage of crazies out on these streets. And that thinking before you speak, or post, is clearly an unwritten rule that doesn't apply to everybody.
Silently suffering through the rudeness, entitlement, and stupidity is one option. Another is to screenshot the offensive posts, and share them so that others can suffer, too. Bored Panda has bravely dared to dive into the depths of social media hell, and dig up some of the most insane things netizens have publicly declared. Many provide proof that certain people should probably have their posting licences revoked.

This person needs to be slapped in the face with Isaac Asimov's very famous quote about ignorance: "There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there always has been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge."
Giving certain people access to a little keyboard, a social media account and an internet connection can be as dangerous as handing a toddler the keys to an SUV. You really don't know what they're capable of, and how far they might take it. The streets of the world wide web are scary enough as it is, without the added risk of being run over by a lunatic on the loose.
Yes, social media has its positives but on the flipside, it provides a platform for ignorance to shine. It also gives the crazies more exposure than they deserve, argues Ashleigh L. Peterson, a former mental health nurse and the founder of the blog, Mental Health @ Home.
The Apollo 1 astronauts seem to have done a really good job, hiding not only for one week, but for over 3000 weeks now.🙄
"Some people would likely have a platform to reach large numbers of people even if it weren’t for social media. But the average science-naïve person who thinks that snow in one area means that climate change is non-existent can only spread that opinion to large numbers of people because of the existence of social media. Twenty years ago they would have had no such opportunity," writes Peterson, and we couldn't agree more.
Yes. Forced. As in, with a gun held to your head. Poor sad bebbehs.
Having extensively studied, researched, and built statistics based on the economics of my hometown from data carefully gathered over the last 5 years... NO.
Someone , please go save his son from a controlling family. Trying to make an arranged marriage these days is sickening.
Yeah, I guess the fact my mother, two sisters, sister in law, and several dear friends are still alive even though the complications of child birth would have kiIIed them and their babies... totally makes me feel that you are correct and they all should have died.
can only hope theres mould in that bible and the spores get into his cpap machine
I'm sorry, sunsets are queer now? Do straight people all hide indoors every day when the sky turns glorious hues of peach, pink and purple, just to make sure its fabulousness doesn't somehow turn you into one of us?
Is there suddenly a glut of women who should never have had children, or are we just hearing about the ones who were always there on a more frequent basis?
No, wait -- I want to know why you can't speak Spanish if you're white.
Yes. Your boy can be Little Beanie, and if it's s girl she can be Sookie-Poo. No, no -- don't thank me.
I feel that the original poster would have gone if the camp just claimed that they wouldn't give any vaccines at the camps.
As an autistic person, masks were very hard for me to wear, and I would be panting from subconscious issues for about ten minutes every time I put one on. But i'm also not an idiot, and I also wore them for about four years until I learned to not touch my face as much and make myself sick.
I used to drink Baileys with the lights turned off. Does that count?
Did she say her daughter is 3? I can't get my 23yr old nephew to do any of those things.
Aside from the utter absurdity of giving a phone to a preschooler, does anyone actually think it would keep them safe in the sort of situation OP is alluding to? Anyone with the intention and ability to take or harm a 3-year-old would be more than capable of taking a phone from that 3-year-old, probably before the child has even realized she might be in danger.
a lot of nerve to be calling someone dumb when your name is literally stupiders
