Why am I sharing this? There’s a lot of name calling going on right now. It’s interesting to understand the dynamics behind it.

“People do not insult others by accident. Name-Calling often signals insecurity, fear, or an attempt to regain control.When emotions rise, the brain defaults to shortcuts. Labels save mental energy. They reduce the other person to a single trait.”

This is useful: “Boundary statement examples
“Labels don’t solve the problem. Let’s focus on the issue.”
“That comment crosses the line. Please talk respectfully.”
“If this continues, the conversation ends.”

However on X where people drop “name calling bombs” everywhere it’s hardly worth the effort to retrain them. Just don’t carry the energy of it - understand why they did it and move on.

Also - check their follower numbers! They’re probably bots.

“The Psychology Behind Name-Calling: A Window into the Human Psyche

At the heart of name-calling lies a potent cocktail of emotions. Anger, frustration, and insecurity often serve as the primary catalysts for this behavior. When we feel threatened or powerless, hurling insults can seem like a quick way to regain control or assert dominance. It’s a primal response, rooted in our most basic instincts for self-preservation and social hierarchy.”

Children don’t know how to argue - they resort to name calling.

Be ready for more shenanigans.

“Official figures may show that the ban is working, but in reality many Australian children have said that they have been able to continue to use their social media accounts because they set them up originally using fake dates of births.

Some say they have been able to regain access to suspended accounts by cheating photo ID checks using a variety of methods.”
