Yes, 100% agree. Same thing happened to me when I posted about a bad experience transatlantic on AA.
There is some strange notion that it should be totally acceptable to attack or belittle others. No, hate to break it to you but disrespect is not an opinion. It is disrespect. Period.
I find it quite interesting (read- depressing) that some people found my posts offensive in any way (unsurprisingly the same posters that were offensive to others).
I’m sorry, but their behavior here is not welcome in my book. Nor is it welcome on FT. This isn’t high school where bullies control a discussion. This is a forum.
Part of the rules of FT (aside from a proper upbringing which should have taught people how to interact with others) are to speak to others in a respectful manner. Can’t grasp that? Can’t do that? Then stay off FT.
