Because society is so terrified of the technologies we have created that it has adopted the ideal that everything needs to be perfect right here and now, and so any deviation from acting out that Utopian fantasy is met harshly, even though it’s obviously not true to any rational person.

I think a lot of people would also punch you after this thread

Why not just ask this question in the OP?

You can punch them, but it’s battery. The same way you can mentally assault them, but that’s harassment.

“Who deserves it”
For what reason? You’re being awfully vague here. You’re awfully invested in causing harm to someone for extremely vague reasons.
Punching him feels dirty because its fucked up. Stop looking for a different avenue to be fucked up that you’re going to be more mentally okay with. Disgusting behavior.
You are 100% the bully. Normal people don’t seek out ways to cause harm.

Because you aren’t a 6 year old and have to use your big boy words in the adult world.
