So words should have no consequences whatsoever? If I go to an interview and I'm rude, I probably won't get hired even if I am the most qualified candidate. If I mock people and create an atmosphere people don't want to be in, my colleagues will leave and find other places to work. Yet, my behavior should be tolerated? This isn't a religious struggle or a medieval concept. People don't want to work with people who behave like assholes. Respect and trust is critical for a well-functioning team. This is fundamental to human relationships, it's not a religion.
