    I hate passive-aggressiveness, because I want to know what people really think of me. How can you feel secure if you know that somebody might secretly hate you and is just waiting for the right time to put a knife in your back?

      Both are bad IMO. Sometimes when morale is low, you don’t need constant berating to break your spirit.

      Being polite doesn’t mean being passive-aggressive. I can tell you that I completely disagree with your opinion without calling you “a brainless ape that should’ve fucking stayed in school because your dumb ass cannot comprehend the simplest matters”.

      If you cant tell the difference between passive aggression and politeness, you gotta talk to someone about learning. Big big big difference there.
