@astar30383: #philosophy #maincharacter #respect

Failed Pessimist :

I generally draw a distinction between respect and common decency. every gets common decency for free but I withhold respect as a higher tier

PaddyWagon :

I think they mean that respect has to be maintained. You have to work at it to keep it

zukazula :

i start at a midline level of respect that is afforded to any human being and then it is adjusted up or down based on what I learn about them

Nick Martin :

treating someone decently isn't respect its the bare minimum of someone wants my respect they earn it

Joeggernaut :

respect is earned, being respectful is normal.

cheesus :

respect is given as default. disrespect is earned.

Dude :

Respect is earned, but decency and politeness is not. I don't need to respect you to treat you well.

LordKronaz :

civility and respect are two different things. everyone gets civility, respect is earned.

Mortishai :

I have Baseline respect, it can go up or down though 😃

Harry Potter :

I think you're confusing courtesy for respect

DopestGhost :

There's a difference between manners and respect

tehwiggles :

never give freely

Femfendar :

Respect and being civil are two different things, I'm civil to everyone until given a reason not to be, but my respect must be earned

Biwwy1980 :

TabooTrickster :

Fair enough

Vito Demarco :

best advice ever

Uno :

The only way it can be done. Period. Same goes with trust. But be given. Keeping it is earned.

SuperNecessaryMMA :

archangel1191 :

You can be respectful to someone without respecting them…

diddlydum :

I disagree a certain level of respect is given freely but a deeper respect is earned as well as disrespect

Bradley Zimbelman :

respect is earned not given but I will not disrespect anyone till they give me a reason

OneEternalLOVE :

I am no respecter of persons. I won't disrespect anyone intentionally tho

Disgruntled artist :

I will show respect but not necessarily give respect. Respect is earned. I will show the common courtesy that social situations dictate but that doesn't mean you have earned my respect

The Tim Nikkel :

I wholeheartedly agree. I don't reapect people who say that they follow that "respect is earned" philosophy. Now, I will say this. Once you lost my respect, you will have to earn it back.

Kitcat :

I agree bestie! 💚💚💚
