You are 100% perpetuating the culture of 'deserved abuse' that I spoke about. People DO deserve respect. Everyone does, and I will assume someone is a good person until proven otherwise. People like yourself and linus create toxic communities of insular looking people hurling insults outward to people looking, and feel justified in their behaviour because they have trod the golden path to 'earning the right to not be belittled'.
- andrewzah 6y agoNo, people deserve common decency. Respect is earned. I think we're going to disagree on terminology here. I do not think every person is automatically worthy of respect, until proven otherwise. Linus has already apologized for his past outbursts, and I do not condone abusive language to people.
