Digital technology has played another important role in fostering this atmosphere of bad manners, vicious personal attacks, intolerance, disrespect, and general rudeness. Sitting in one’s basement in pajamas, spewing out venom on a keyboard like a Batman movie villain who was poorly treated in a past life, one is at a safe distance from one’s target.
数字技术在促成这种不礼貌的恶毒人身攻击、以及欠缺包容和尊重的粗鲁氛围中起了非常重要的作用。人们可以穿着睡衣坐在地下室，像蝙蝠侠电影中过去生活一团糟的坏蛋那样依靠键盘向安全距离外的目标喷射毒液。欺凌已经实现虚拟化。
