Ah, the original post (http://www.livejournal.com/users/campfollower/947.html) that I saw on the topic, does make reference to nice girls confining their snarkiness to private places, which does carry a certain inference of a lack of honesty.

And I have seen some of the people commenting on the posts supporting the need for LJ to be a nicer / more polite place, and thought that they have been on occasion quite rude to and about others so I'm not entirely convinced of their bona fides.

Perhaps they are all going to turn over a new leaf and I am being overly cynical.

I also think, after several years on LJ, that there are some people for whom any disagreement from their opinion / tastes / views is threatening, no matter how courteously that dissent is phrased. The mere lack of agreement is enough to threaten their sense of themselves and their place in the world.

When I first started on LJ I thought of it as more of a diary as so few people were reading. Now, with a larger flist, I have to be more courteous not just to my flist but with an awareness of the flist of my flist.
