there is something interesting about someone that says "I'm flagging anything I see that is uncivil" in their profile, but says "I think we should have public hangings for anyone who suggests clearing land for AI." in their comment.
Incivility is when you say something I don't like. I intended this remark to be facetious, but that is actually the definition, according to Wiktionary:
> incivility sense 1: (uncountable) The state of being uncivil; lack of courtesy; rudeness in manner.
> uncivil sense 1: Not civil; discourteous; impolite
> civil sense 2: (comparable) Behaving in a reasonable or polite manner; avoiding displays of hostility.
> reasonable sense 3: Not excessive or immoderate; within due limits; proper.
> polite sense 1: Well-mannered, civilized.
> well-mannered: Having good manners; polite, courteous and socially correct; conforming to standards of good behaviour.
> hostility sense 1: (uncountable) The state of being hostile.
> hostile sense 3: Unwilling.
> discourteous: Impolite; lacking consideration for others.
That's presumably why the feminists developed the concept of "tone policing".
