it’s passive aggressive.
ultimately it’s better to not inform and start ignoring these people.
let natural selection work.

I think the internet is pretty great, but it's a major factor in that rise in at least 3 ways:
* Previously, an important check on fools was social consequences. Now they have an endless supply of people to bother. Spammers were the first to exploit that, but now it's endemic.
* Algorithmic weighting toward the reaction-generating (versus, say thoughtful, measured, responsible, accurate, helpful, kind) has rewarded idiocy and awfulness with attention and money. We're all now living in a reality TV show.
* As those behaviors become a major percentage of what people, especially young people, see, they become normalized. Otherwise people think being a thoughtless jackass is just how to get by in the world.
We are strongly in need of firm politeness, of militant decency. Without it, things will get "naturally" worse.
any kind of softness in language like “i’ll-considered” sounds so sterile that i sense hatred underneath. too much time in big companies.
more sharing a crazy person take on how different words can be interpreted counter to the intent.
i hate being civil!
You’re in the prison of your own devise, the negative bias.
that’s direct and aggressive.
framing it as advice is the passive part.
And yes, this comment is passive aggressive.
See the difference?
i either ignore. or if i trust them i just say “don’t use ai slop”.
anything softer is passive and morally judgy too.
i’m not here to tell them what’s globally right, only how i want them to interact with me.
