On-line bullying would not exist if it were not for derogatory labels. Avoiding those labels was my intention because bullying was not the subject, however important. Racism was not the subject either. I believe each should be addressed and discussed one at a time because the mentality of each is of a completely different nature.

The idea of my post was to make people think before they group together as ideological clones.

When the other side calls all mustard-lovers slobs. Then comes the chant that the ketchup lovers should be strung up. I say, "take it one on one and have empathy" as you mentioned. Talk and find common ground where it exists, then take what you found back to the group and bring logical debate in a calm atmosphere.
