Ann, I'd say it depends on your intention, esp your general intention in
living. Do you want to benefit yourself and others? Or do you want to do harm?
As for the rest, I think it's pretty simple. If someone is harming us and won't
stop, then we remove ourselves from their life. If someone is harming others
and won't stop, then we put them in jail until they can be rehabilitated.
Here online, if someone says something untrue, we say what is true. If someone
says something we don't agree with, we say we don't agree. If someone is a
jerk, we say we think that, ONE time. To say it over and over is imo a sign
that the name caller is projecting and or venting.
I think a lot of the nastiness online is people venting what they are unwilling
or unable to vent about in their 3D life. Again, my opinion. From:

First you call people toxic. Next thing you know, you're burning them at the
stake or leading them into the gas oven!
Is it okay to call someone as "asshole", "obnoxious", "annoying" or any other
number of adjectives? Is it possible for people to actually be these things or
are we merely putting our own subjective spin on how others act? Under what
circumstances do we hold others responsible for their actions and effect on us
or on others? What is the point where we say enough is enough? Or do we simply
accept the behaviour of others as none of our business even when it impacts our
lives?
