I was just reading this post over at Little Green Footballs, and he brings up a good point - one that I’ve noticed myself.

An interesting fact: you almost never see the reverse phenomena — insane, profanity-laced rants and personal attacks by anonymous “right-wing” commenters. In fact, there are many left-wing blogs that still have open comments because it just isn’t a problem for them.

I’ve only experienced it a few times here at TMS - but I’ve read some really venomous stuff on other right-wing blogs.  I’m sure there are some ring-wingers who write hateful comments on lefty blogs, but the left seems to have a much greater sense of anger and spitefulness about them.

Just my observation . . .

    Well, there’s one fundamental difference between right wing nuts and left wing nuts. Just think: “Righty-tighty; lefty-loosey.” It’s just common convention that wingnuts turned “right” are tighter. Wingnuts turned “left” are loose.
