News - Nigerians feel tired and frustrated and vent their frustrations out on net via cyber bullying!
And in real life via verbal bullying.

Verbal bullying and cyber bullying is very rampant in the Nigerian society and cyberspace.

It is an outcome of "mass frustration" which it's root cause is traceable to the monopoly of politics by aristocrats who care less or nothing about the welfare of the masses.
But if verbal bullying and cyber bullying becomes the only available means of relief from the oppressive regime of a few aristocrats fleecing many Nigerians without a jot of empathy, it makes both the oppressor and the oppressed toxic to the society.

NIGERIANS NEED TO LEARN HOW TO COMMUNICATE DECENTLY and ETHICALLY:


Decency is the trademark of civilization.

For example: in my field of work in Ministry when arguing about Tithe, I always state my points clear without calling names or abusing any body.

Let's say Pastor Alex says "Tithe paying is a scam or it's unscriptural" and I don't agree with him I don't just say..."Pastor Alex you're a goat, you're stupid or you're a fake Pastor "

That's indecent and unethical, before I'm half done with what I'm saying to any sane user of the cyberspace, i'm already a cyberbully.
The same applies to verbal arguments.

I can say " Tithe payment is an act of obedience to God" therefore Christians who pay their Tithes receive an extraordinary dose of God's Favour in their finances compared to those who don't.

If I want to sound more frank and blunt, I can do that without insulting anybody "directly"

I can say; "Anyone or any Pastor that says Tithe paying is unscriptural, is a wicked pastor that hides the truth from his members and wants them to remain poor Christians"

Take a good look at the above statement... Though it sounds a bit hard/harsh...it doesn't insult anyone directly!

That's the difference between Thick talk and thick talk lite. Understand.

These street jargons like...

U wan collect?

Comot body... etc etc

From an ethical point of view all sound harsh, toutish and looks like some set of gutter languages reserved for brutes and low mean men, and they're NOT FUNNY!

Which I believe you're not.

Look at this Tweet below...
The guy with the Labour Party logo who responded to Seun the host of the tweet needs to get a cyber bullying rehab!

Even if the statement is sarcastic and makes people laugh..."it's still cyber bullying "

You get it?

Thanks for reading!
Be the best!
