> “toxicity,” defined as rude, disrespectful, or unreasonable language that is likely to make someone leave a discussion. We specifically use the term toxicity, as opposed to words like “abuse” or “hate speech” for both practical and scientific reasons. Scientific reasons? There's nothing scientific about a term so undefined that every person can have their own custom definition.
