Etiquette



DP Etiquette

First rule: Don't be a jackass. Most people are good.

Other rules: Do not attack or insult people you disagree with. Engage with facts, logic and beliefs. Out of respect for others, please provide some sources for the facts and truths you rely on if you are asked for that. If emotion is getting out of hand, get it back in hand. To limit dehumanizing people, don't call people or whole groups of people disrespectful names, e.g., stupid, dumb or liar. Insulting people is counterproductive to rational discussion. Insult makes people angry and defensive. All points of view are welcome, right, center, left and elsewhere. Just disagree, but don't be belligerent or reject inconvenient facts, truths or defensible reasoning.

The New Karens

 


It seems that the day of 'Karen' fatigue has finally dawned on us. After years of throwing the name about for any middle-aged woman who is rude or angry, Gen Z have apparently replaced it with something else entirely.

Any guesses?
(If you can't guess, the answer is in the article)

Generally, according to social media, what makes you a Karen is being rude to service staff, entitled, racist, problematic, as well as a stereotypically short haircut.
