Good lord I've just been lurking on this sub for a few weeks and it appears that you people are constantly passive aggressive at each other. Not on all posts, just here and there, but at least once a day or something like that. I don't mind disagreement, its to be expected on any sub for a particular philosophy or religion, but at least on nearly every other sub I've been on they usually end arguments on a a peaceful tone like "well we may have completely different views on X but I recognize that that is your opinion and I can live with that". At the very least they don't resort to petty insults or ad hominem. There just appears to be so many intensely dogmatic views on here and when someone challenges them the other person flips out and calls them out on something they said months or years ago. And then there are entire posts dedicated on bashing members and their ideas.
Listen I hardly know anything about zen, I was just curious and found this place. Feel free to ignore me and I was planning on ignoring all the infighting but I guess it just really got to me and I had to leave or say something. I'm likely very ignorant here but this place doesn't seem very "zen" (whatever that is) you know? More like a bunch of people with anger issues pretending they know better than anyone else.
Like I said this is just a stupid rant. I'm just curious as what you preach seems very different from you behave. Toodles.
