@thenomain It's degrees though, and it's about showing mindfulness and courtesy when voicing disagreements. Like for example, we all know these are not the same:
- "I disagree with the implementation of this code, I think it is inelegant"
- "This code is total fucking dogshit. The coder who made it should quit and never do anything again, this is fucking hilariously terrible."
- "I admire many aspects about the coder's intentions, but I ultimately think this is a flawed approach, ehre's why:"
I think #2 absolutely deserves someone to be a dick back. Sure, you could argue their opinion is valid, but they have done nothing to warrant it being taken seriously.
