Talking sh*t about people in today’s day and age tends to get a bad reputation. It’s as if people no longer see all the benefits that it brings to society. By talking badly about others you are actually able to not only improve yourself- but also actually improve the well being of everyone around you.

An important distinction to make right off the bat is that when you talk sh*t about someone, it’s because his or her feelings don’t actually matter. Your opinions need to be shared and if it hurts someone’s feelings so be it. They should be able to, at this point in their life, not let it bother them- no matter the comment. It is also your constitutional right to say whatever you want about anyone, and so you should. If you aren’t using this right then what did our founding fathers die for? If you want to say mean things about someone you should because at the end of the day you matter more than their feelings ever will.

And this is all under the assumption that they actually ever find out what you say. The people you tell these things to definitely won’t tell the person you're talking about anything because no one gossips. Also this means that people actually talk to them, which is unlikely because if you don’t like this person, nobody does, or at least nobody should. It is actually for the greater good that you do talk badly about people because then others will learn from what you have to say. Your opinion is more important than anyone else’s, if you don’t like someone nobody should and you need to inform people who do immediately so they can change. You telling them this will just enhance everyone’s lives and it’s not like they’d ever tell the person because they’ll respect your opinion too much. So realistically it doesn’t matter what you say because they won’t ever hear about it.

Talking bad about people also makes you a better person, really. It enhances your communication skills and also it helps you get in the mindset to always put yourself first which you’re going to need for the rest of your life. You’ll also feel better about yourself because by putting someone else down you are also in comparison making yourself look better.

You will actually look so much better for doing it that companies will want to hire you more. Talking about others is such a great quality to have- you should put it on your resume! It might sound obvious to say that, but some people don’t realize that an important part to every team is having someone whose sole purpose is to bring others down. Studies show that talking about people will also make you smarter, which is also critical in getting a job one day. As a result companies are almost twenty times more likely to hire you if they find out you possess this quality.

People often argue that if you have a problem with someone you should just talk to them about it, but this is completely overrated. Why would you work out a conflict with them when you can talk sh*t about them? If you work out your problem then you will have a tougher time talking about them and that will just get rid of so many perks. This person you're talking about has absolutely no value anyways so there is no purpose in working things out with them.

And this is not a form of bullying. "Merriam Webster Dictionary" defines bullying as, “to treat abusively” and you are not treating someone abusively if you talk about him or her. Words don’t actually hurt anyone, definitely not physically, which is the only way you can hurt someone. Emotions aren’t important at all. And even if it was a form of bullying that’s fine because bullying is cool. It shows that you can force your way by making other people feel down. This kind of coercive power is really admirable in society.

In the end what’s really important to remember is that you have the right to talk bad about anyone because you are better than him or her and thereby they are still required to be nice to you. You are entitled to their kindness so don’t forget that! No matter how poorly you talk about anyone they need to treat you kindly because talking poorly about you isn’t an option, hell you’re you after all. You are the most important person to have ever lived so what you say, goes. Your feelings are the only ones that matter and if that means putting someone else down, then go for it. Everyone will totally respect you more. Everyone.
