I do politely disagree about most not behaving as authentically themselves on the internet as they truly are off the computer.

You mention social anxiety, I too can be more the listener than the conversationalist, at the same time, it's responsible to learn how to acknowledge feelings/needs in the moment and be assertive about that.

With this person's comments about "I'm not nice, I would...", granted that sounds like she swings the pendulum too far in the opposite direction, yet it does sound like a statement where she would stand up for herself and not place herself in a situation to be manipulated or coerced or taken advantage of. That would involve stuffing integrity down the drain, so to speak and not behaving in a manner that's true to oneself. One can be kind and with strong personal boundaries at the same time.
