"If you disagree with me, you are a hater."

Since when on Nostr is it no longer possible to have freedom of speech or thought?

Disagreement is not hate: it can be confrontation, stimulation or simply a different opinion.

Labeling all disagreement as hostility risks shutting down dialogue instead of enriching it.

Are you getting hate?

I've read some pretty disturbing statements.

That's not good. But I guess there will always be some bad apples, yes?

I've run into some of that here.

I think it's part of human nature. It will increase as more people onboard unfortunately 😕

Agreed.

I've disagreed with many folks on here. It's a good thing because it helps me look at my own opinions, see if they stand up to scrutiny and encourages me to improve my use of language and spoting my own logical fallacys when making an argument.

It's important to not take things personally but it is hard.
