But we can't really know other people's motives from reading their posts here.
It's really important to give people respect, I think. And also the benefit of the doubt.
So even if if disagree with people, I try to do that. Of course, sometimes you have more experiences with someone, and come to comclusions.
But still, it's important to treat people respectfully. We all lose perspective on that sometimes-- but I do think it's an important way of approaching people here. even if you don't like what they're saying.
If you think Lou's posts are unhelpful, or even may upset some others, couldn't you at least address him respectfully-- here-- as part of the way we're trying to keep this a good place for dialogue and not being hurtful to others-- even others we privately don't like?
