With every influx of Newnauts I see a lot of behavior and posts clearly designed to perpetuate negative cycles, stir up anger, and encourage engagement with that anger.
Many of us came from abusive social spaces and sought peace and refuge from those spaces. And yet … not all of us brought that negativity with us into this garden.
Spreading your negativity into a new space full of other people who are struggling with their own healing is a choice you're making to be disrespectful to others.

Rudeness isn’t a bad habit … like something you just happened to pick up somewhere and accidently keep forgetting to not be … it’s a character trait you’re choosing to bring into a space and inflict upon others.
Yes it can be a bad character trait. Also by bringing in and promoting kindness can also encourage kindness from others.
