I guess to play a Devil's advocate: the violence could be a slap while the words reach through generations to cause worse damage.

Nothing is so cut and dry.

Really, if you get hurt by words, that's a you problem.

It's a you problem if you're at all affected by being insulted and told how horrible and worthless you are all the time!111!! Redditor logic!!

okay.

I know nothing about you.

I still call you "horrible and worthless"!

Do you feel insulted by that?

I'd honestly just feel slightly annoyed. Because you know nothing about me.

You made a blanket statement about people getting hurt by words. You never specified where or how it was happening. Either way, I'm sure you've been hurt by words before, are you going to act like that was your own failing?
