How do you identify "toxicity" vs just something you don't agree with. The other items in your list I can see a way to make a pretty clear judgement about, saying "that is toxic", not so sure.
- mod 6y agoI guess I'm referring to general hate. A good political example would be "People voting for ________ are idiots." Same thing in tech; a discussion about why you don't like a family of languages is great. A discussion about why people who use that family of language are all terrible curmudgeons probably isn't. Overall, I think toxicity is something you know when you see. A well-worded, earnest disagreement is nowhere near toxic.
