It's much easier for people to mock and ridicule than to educate and correct.

I'm not saying we shouldn't call out poor behavior but the way we do so should be constructive as to not breed further resentment. This goes for most everything too, not just for the issue in the OP.

This is just a small part of creating a world that you want to live in. We can't shut out the world or those we disapprove of, but we can contribute to the betterment of others, making the world a place we're more more comfortable with sharing.

yes, and this is why i think we should be completely ignoring this aspect. It's not really primed to do anything productive.

it's not that we need to call it out, we shouldn't allow it. Everybody called out the bad behavior of hitler, it's not like he up and stopped doing that shit.

the best way to do this is to instill it in the minds of children as they grow up. Which it seems we aren't doing at much of any rate.
