Mostly just repeated observations of my peers. It's kind of hard to articulate an exact experience other than general rudeness and sneering but I'll give it a shot.
Recently, a colleague of mine was presenting their work. Another colleague with CSPD (comp. sci. personality disorder) interrupted the presentation to say "this all seems very obvious." The remark was self-aggrandizing and completely dismissive of my colleague's hard work.
Witnessing this made me realize just how toxic our community can be to one another.

Put your friend's precious fee-fees aside, and ask yourself the important question: was it wrong? If it wasn't, then it sounds like the problem was with your friend, wasting everyone's time with a pedestrian analysis that benefited nothing except for their own ego, so they can be heard, so they can climb that all-important neurotypical status ladder, so they can put another insignificant bullet point on their C.V. Was it wrong?
