I guess it prepares you for real life when you have to deal with people you don't like. Thay skill is highly undervalued as it shows lots of self control and strong listening skills.


You're absolutely right.  Just thinking back to the "everyone wins" mentality also messes people up when they get older.  They have trouble excepting losses, or putting fourth their all.  Put on top of that, blocking people they don't like, makes for some tissue-soft skin.  Anyone taking offense to this specific post I'm writing now, is the perfect example.  But, just go about your day, it's your first step to bettering yourself.


I don't think that anyone is taking offense to your post. You post does seem awfully closed-minded. Not everyone has a brain that works exactly like yours. Not everyone has emotions that work exactly like yours. Your suggestion is fine, but other people have other suggestions, and they are no less valid than your own.

The likelihood is, that the stuff you're finding annoying or offensive but marginally within the rules, is being posted to get a reaction. By not giving a reaction, you're not giving these people what they want.

Sometimes, the best response is no response - because sometimes not getting a response can be just as aggravating to someone as their post is to you. It's not about how your brain works, it's learning and knowing how to deal with people.
