Kicking the cat

They know they are a failure in life. They know their life is not what they would like it to be. They know they can do nothing about it. So they come to Malaysia Today to rant, rave, scold and mock, and curse the whole world for being the losers that they are.
NO HOLDS BARRED
Raja Petra Kamarudin
Life does not always work out the way you would like it to work out. Life is full of disappointments and frustrations. No one can honestly claim that he or she is satisfied with how things are going on.
The only person not facing any problems is a person who is dead and buried in his or her grave. That is why some people choose suicide rather than continue to face the problems in their lives.
Some people face financial problems. In fact, in Malaysia, many people face financial problems. Credit card debt is very high added to the housing loans and car loans that you have to pay regularly every month.
Do you know that this is the same in the UK? People borrow from lending companies at an interest rate of 30% per month, prompting the Archbishop of Canterbury to declare war on usury with a promise to put them out of business.
The fact that people need to borrow against that exorbitant interest rate shows how hard-up they are and that they cannot qualify for a ‘proper’ loan because their credit is so bad.
Many people have marital problems, which can include sexual problems and/or in-law problems.
Some have career problems plus they are unhappy with their working conditions and/or their bosses. And for sure many are not happy with their pay as well.
Even if you are paid fair market wage that does not mean you are paid enough. The cost of living is so high that even if you are paid market wage it is still not enough to cover your living cost. Whatever amount you take home you will still be short of money.
And one or all of these problems builds up your frustration and unhappiness. So you need a way to release this frustration. In the US people go for therapy. In Malaysia we do not believe in therapy. A couple of you will go home and kick the cat for therapy. Most of you, though, post comments on the Internet as a sort of therapy.
And that is why we see so many nasty comments posted on the Internet, Malaysia Today being no exception. These nasty comments are posted by people who suffer from some sort of mental problem and who need an avenue to release their frustration.
They know they are a failure in life. They know their life is not what they would like it to be. They know they can do nothing about it. So they come to Malaysia Today to rant, rave, scold and mock, and curse the whole world for being the losers that they are.
Basically, they are not able to accept their failures and acknowledge that they are failures due to their own weaknesses and shortcomings. They need to shift the blame to someone else. And by cursing and swearing inMalaysia Today they can con themselves into believing that they are suffering because of someone or something else.
These people are not interested in an intellectual discourse. They would not recognise an intellectual discourse even if it bit them on their backside. All they want to do is to engage in shouting and screaming and blame the whole world for the miserable person that they are.
And those are people we do not need in Malaysia Today.
