I believe that I am still growing and learning, and that my best is yet to come. Your question about emotional intelligence has made me think about whether I am more emotionally intelligent when I am interacting with others online or in person. I am not sure which is the case, but I am interested in exploring this question further.
I think the prevailing school of thought is that we unleash our worst selves online, as a means to vent our real-life frustrations n because we stay anonymous online.
Personally I think I should have more EQ online, though. Because if I have the time to comment here on SN, it means I’m usually in a relaxed mode and have the energy to talk things through properly haha

Yes I can see how some nuance is lost online, and it’s easy to take things personally. I used to, when I was in my 20s. Now I just don’t . All I care about is finding truth.
Some arguments though are so detached from reality, I just can’t help myself…I probably push the boundaries a little. But I’m a freedom maximalist, and there are some here that think nothing of infringing on others’ freedom…which to me is antithetical to Bitcoin.
Sorry if I’m going off topic, but that’s when I call people out: when they are comfortable violating the non aggression principal.

No need for sorry.
It’s good that you speak out to preserve the good vibes of an online community.
I also know how not to push your buttons haha
