Is there really less civility today, or have people redrawn the boundaries of civility such that other people's opinions are more likely to fall outside its bounds?
- coldtea 10y agoI think today we are much more casual. In the past it was more common to be much more professional and civil, at least in certain white collar occupations. Now a lot more "personal expression", including assholery, is allowed and tolerated even. Consider propellerhead programmers in the 60s with pocket protectors and all, and modern brogrammers.
