It seems as though I did misunderstand your point a little. From what I NOW understand, you aren't so much saying that we should be judging the contributions of others so much as you're advocating a self analysis of our own contributions. An analysis that encourages us to look at our own behavior and determine whether it is unnecessarily negative or unreasonable. I couldn't agree more. Unfortunately, the benefits of the internet and it's ability to connect folks from all over the globe often comes with unpleasant side effects. Those side effects often illustrate themselves in the way many folks become emboldened, unreasonable and brave behind the anonymity of their keyboards. Between the web and mobile phones we are really perpetuating a culture of rudeness and disconnection and it really is unfortunate to see.
