#CovidIsNotOver #COVIDisAirborne
Please consider boosting my poll for reach.
For those of you who still choose to wear a respirator or mask in enclosed public spaces (such as: grocery store, school, clinic or pharmacy). How would you describe yourself?
🇳🇱
@LauraleeDukeshire Where is the "I dont think these are valid terms" option?
@freemo What were you hoping to achieve in asking that question?
Thoughtfulness and reflection on if they are useful terms and why or why not.
I am sorry you took my intent as passive agressive, that was not the intent.
What exactly in my response did you find impolite?
@freemo I didn't say your response was impolite. I said it came across as confrontational.
You said:
> politely presenting your opinion would have been a better starting place.
But what about my question came across co frontational? How do you feel it could have been phrased better?
@freemo You presented a judgement about the terms used in my poll (implying the whole exercise was invalid) but didn't explain why you thought that way. You made an assertion without any explanation. It was like throwing a pie in someone's face as you walk by or "here have a grenade". It was a pronouncement in the form of a rhetorical question. It did not seem like an invitation to a discussion.
I see, thanks for your perspective. Curious take.
@freemo it came across to me as passive aggressive confrontation. Which did not inspire thoughtful reflection but rather fight/flight response. If you are looking for thoughtful discussion, politely presenting your opinion would have been a better starting place.
