Keep discussion civil, even if you are being baited. You will get through to someone far better if you remain polite and don't have them raise their defenses.

As a reminder, this subreddit is for civil discussion (guidelines).

• Do not call other users trolls, morons, children, or anything else clever you may think of. Personal attacks, whether explicit or implicit, are not permitted.

• Do not accuse other users of being shills. If you believe that a user is a shill, the proper conduct is to report the user or send us a modmail.

• In general, don't be a jerk. Don't bait people, don't use hate speech, etc. Attack ideas, not users.

• Do not downvote comments because you disagree with them, and be willing to upvote quality comments whether you agree with the opinions held or not.

Incivility will result in a permanent ban from the subreddit. If you see uncivil comments, please report them and do not reply with incivility of your own.
