Why do a lot of people get joy from upsetting people?

Well it starts out

There are 2 sides to everything
The world is changing faster and faster if you noticed all the ugly things in the world happening it a holy war going on.. and it's the little things that turn in to the big things.

But if you notice those people who come into your life and create drama look how miserable they are look who they are as people and you will see a dark side you will see a side of them that hates themselves they hate everybody and what everybody stands for and if they can come into your life and piss you off over and over and over pretty soon you're going to be just like them and they're going to pull you over to that dark side.

So if you have anybody in your life that you hang around with that keeps coming around creating drama for you and you get all caught up in it and it's nothing but a waste of time energy and pretty soon you're going to get so pissed off you'll be just like them so kick them out of your life keep them away from you your life will be 10 times better you will be 10 times happier everything will start going smoothly stay away from people that create drama judgment or ignorance just walk away stay away

They have a mental issue seriously. They are bitter about their own lives, instead of working on themselves its easier to complain but nothing gets solved belittling someone. The most idiotic people are over political issues and im calling out the right and left supporters its like this -- NO you're AN IDIOT! NO you're AN IDIOT YOU LEFTIST! F-U REPUBLICAN! Meanwhile, the Clintons, the Bush's, the Obama's and others are laughing that they manipulated people on the interest, tax, and monetary system where the government has purposely created this division.

That's a very good question because it has happened to me lots of times and I never could figure out why.
My sister used to always end up making me cry over the phone and we were grown adult women. I never got her upset but it seemed like she would go out of her way to upset me.
To this day I still don't have a clue why she did that to me 🤷🏼‍♀️

I have a feeling that most of people don't want to upset others... they just don't feel it... and when it happens, they don't know when to say stop... and if it has already happened... most of them are in denial or too proud to say "I'm sorry"

[HawkPerception]

I don't and have personally never understood that desire. I think some people are genuinely just more evil than others.

[mstbooblover]

At some degree once more the sado-masochist syndrom. The need to feel existing by provoking a reaction, be it by upsetting people, instead of more intelligent people provoking a reaction by positive actions. A matter of choice. As Dumbledore states in Harry Potter, it's not our capacities that define us, but rather our choices.

They're assholes. It's what they do. It's all they have in life.

@marjorie
I agree with you

[Agape93]

Because it's funny to see how easy it is to get under their skin

Sadism is a well documented mental condition.
You can look it up.
It’s a pathological thing for some people
(More people than we’d think)

Schadenfreude is the german word for deriving joy in the misery of others. The reason of “why” is probably to do with how people have a habit of comparisons and use that as external validation.

[tzdc21]

Because there's a lot if crapoy a d insecure people in the world abd they feel that putting someone else down will make them feel better

[ArrowheadSW]

It gives them a feeling of power. It is a bad thing to take pleasure in.

[Blueeyes81]

Some people are just miserable and jaded. They can't find happiness so they try and bring people to their level.

[Hellraiser1984]

Because they are natural sadists. Unfortunately the majority of humanity are like this.

[ProbablyClueless]

Misery loves company. Sometimes people find watching the reaction comical.

[Anonymous]

Because, unfortunately... there are lots of evil people :(

[Anonymous]

I don't get joy from it but I'm not going to take anyone's shit either

[Daniela1982]

Ask Biden. He's the champ at that.

[FunkyMonkee]

Sure seems that way, doesn't it?

[LiamJHayden]

Some people suck.

[Tomisworthless]

There is joy in suffering.

[beefcakebradybatson]

[Awantika03]

They found their happiness in it
