The internet is a vast martial world. This world has neither smoke nor swords.
But wherever there's a martial world, there are heroes. They wield words and images, love to stand up for what's right, and can't resist meddling in other people's business. Their words can be eloquent, making people happy and delighted; or they can be foul-mouthed, leaving others heartsick and consumed with anguish.
They strike as they please, sometimes righteous, sometimes wicked.
Some know how to use humor in their words to ease others' troubles, fill emptiness with fun, and dispel confusion with the truth. Others only vent their own feelings without caring how anyone else feels, pass subjective judgment on people, and make baseless claims about events.
They hurt one another without regard for friend or foe. One moment they're united against a common enemy; the next, they're scattered, at odds, and disloyal.
They stir up trouble in the martial world of the internet, turning everything upside down and blurring right and wrong.
Some of them are skilled at "reading the wind and changing course," surviving from one wave to the next.
They leave one amusing or twisted comment after another online, then turn and walk away, as if to say, "Once the deed is done, I brush off my sleeves and disappear, hiding all trace of my achievement."
No one has ever known what they truly look like.
The martial world calls them... keyboard warriors.
