I wish you were right, but I've met enough angry mobs of 50 to 70 people online to know you aren't unfortunately.
Face to face, people are usually pretty civil and they don't easily call name on one another (because you know, a punch in the face is just painful), but even in real life, when the discussion happens in front of a group, discussions are quickly getting hotter. And being separated by a screen and an internet connection make things far worse.
