Probably.
I'm trying to make clear that I'm pro-kindness; I've just learned from personally experience that calling people out with mini-lectures hasn't been effective in the past.
It might work with a few of us, like you and me*, but generally, it's not going to be successful, and it's likely to explode.
How do I know this? Because I've done it.
ETA: * I mean that you are I are receptive to being reminded to be kind, even if we don't like being called for it.
EATA: I know that I made a couple of now-deleted posts to the effect that karma would probably take care of the situation early in this thread, but I honestly don't think I'm pro-meanness or pro-rudeness generally. I might be kidding myself.
