“Prefer”… when you’re young, you’ve got time to burn online without distractions.

Then you get married, have kids, work a demanding job, and you don’t get time for uninterrupted online play.

Wait until you tell extremist, right-wing Christians that Jesus wasn’t a white guy! Oooohhh boyyy!

Also, I think it’s important to not forget that in the internet age, a very small minority of hateful asshats can appear to have a very large voice. They are still a very small, minority group of asshats.
