That’s probably true to an extent, but I try to avoid generalizing because it’s over*broad* (pun intended).
Always prefer to focus on the individual, assume full agency over their behavior, hold them all to the same standards.

I always want to focus on the individuals. I hate collectivism. A community can drive itself to collectivist patterns rather quickly, as we are currently seeing.
Yea I don't care how much I liked you in previous interactions, if I disagree with you, I'm going to be honest. A lot of people just think they know someone they've never met butl liked a few things they said in the past, so they parrot everything they say without thinking about the statement themselves.
Yup. Without the drive of a majority of people in a community to call out BS when they see it, you get cults of personality. It just so happens that many women don't like being called out for BS. That's lame.
