This is a thoughtful post and I agree with the sentiment in general.  My take on it, though, is that I don’t really see the example posts as rude or mean.  In the example(s) provided, the blog post specifically *asks* for feedback, and then the comments give just that, honestly.  So, are we to assume that the only type of feedback desired is that of agreement?  A true conversation allows for others to express their own opinions, with neither party assuming a disagreement of aesthetic equates to a personal attack.  (That said, I do think you’re right that we need to learn to disagree *better*, as a global community.) ray ban 3026 http://www.firstcleanair.org
