You've misread something here. They didn't say it was inherently abusive, they said they hate seeing people abused because of it.

How is it abusive?

No I agree, it's abusive behaviour but the people that use it are conditioned to accept it.

What did they mean by "abuse" in this case?

Jyaif | karma 2148 | avg karma 1.99 · | 2018-05-31 15:09:39+00:00

Your usage of "abuse" is offensive to people that really experienced abuse.

What exactly do you mean by abusive?

What’s abusive?

Saying that some people need to be subjected to abuse is a terrible point of view.

I don't see it as abusive. You would be weird to do so though.

I'm curious what you consider (or believe other people consider) abusive about that?

ProAm | karma 9697 | avg karma 3.29 · | 2017-10-20 20:52:17+00:00

Abuse is abuse.

There is something wrong with abuse.

I addressed this in another downthread reply. Briefly, I agree. My quibble isn’t with the term “abuse”, only the nature of its intent.

Lammy | karma 15598 | avg karma 3.86 · | 2020-10-21 19:27:18+00:00

It really bothers me to see the very serious and very subjective word “abusive” used objectively here like I’m expected to agree with 100% of Google’s criteria.

Basically, abuse these days is being told something you didn't like or agree with.

How is it not abusive regardless? Doing something "stupid" is not a crime.

Tomte | karma 149785 | avg karma 5.23 · | 2018-09-25 06:39:57+00:00

I find that abusive.

How is the term abusive?

Abusive?
