What makes people inclined to perceive disagreements as personal attacks?

[xJeremyx]

I have been seeing a lot of this here, where person B says something that disagrees with opinions or the POV of person A, and person A takes it personally and tries to fight back.

What causes this type of behaviour?

I think most of those situations are where one person only came here to force their opinion down other throats. Didn’t like it when they failed.

People like that do not make sense at all. Im also referring to the people who get butthurt after reading posts directed at one specific gender. People can't see the merit in it and even so, they cannot respect that everyone is entitled to their own choices and opinions. Which makes them childish imho.

Nobody is perfect. Gotta let people make their mistakes.

Usually true. Yes.

It reminds me of what happened to Alex Jones.
His personal opinion cost him about a billion dollars in fines.
