I have come to the conclusion that Nigerians love to insult others.
This is evident online. Create a thread and before long people are derailing it with insults.
Or when a nigerian chap first meets a nigerian girl in-person, the Nigerian female often thinks it part of the ritual to insult the fellow.

I've been in other online communities like reddit and other people do not behave like this.
No matter how much they may disagree, they never resort to insults. They simply "agree to disagree".
This "agreeing to disagree" nonsense is something very alien to the uncivilized brain of the average Nigerian, because it only sees things in black and white.

Doing a psychosis on this behavior, I believe it comes from a deep seated anger at OTHER things in their life.
That person they are insulting is not their real problem. They are simply refracting...taking out their life frustrations on the other person.
It is deeply tied to low self-esteem issues.

Could be that you are powerless/weak/broke/unattractive offline and so get online to create a fake world for yourself where you attempt to blow your horn at others.
Offline, Could be that the girl figures she better insult him so he doesn't get to find out that she is a fraud and insult her first. Like those small dogs that are all bark no teeth.

All symptoms of low-self esteem and general intense life dissatisfaction.

So the next time you start raining insults at other people over perceived slights, audit yourself... Is this my reaction right? Do they really deserve this? Would I tolerate these insults if I was on the receiving end?

It baffles me too. Some people on NL especially. Hiding behind their phone or laptop to curse someone that u won't have to liver to speak to if you were in the same room coincidentally. Silence is truly golden.

I think its due to stress. Emotional & Psychological.

You are mad

lol @ doing a psychosis at this behaviour. Was that a Freudian slip? I'm sure you meant to write psycho analysis but psychosis fits perfectly to describe the behaviour. It's like some are half-mad or suffer from Asperger's because you'll be saying something, next thing, someone is coming off stage left hurling insults. It was odd at 1st, but then again, whilst in Rome, you learn the ways of the Romans.

wanna share my own side of this issue.The truth Is 95% of nigrerians are emotional time bombs ....in my area of sango-otta, at the bus stops, people are so angry that they can slap you if you mistaken near them too closely while passing.....
in Naija here,almost everyone Is a suspect of everything including you reading this comment oooh.....

Its an hereditary disease sweet

You & me, both. Must be something in the air because I also woke up before my alarm clock this morning. Hopefully your mood will improve. Have some caffeine to bring back the spring in your gait How was the party the other day? I'm sure you got a few lap dances & face dances

Debauchery is the word Let's just say I wouldn't like for some pictures to come out.
I'm detoxifying, so no caffeine or alcohol for a few days.
If you flirt with me, my mood will improve for sure
