I am not going to belabor this point, but I am going to address it since it is a real thing: In the past, I have let too many bad actors and passive-aggressive commenters into this blog. No names will be mentioned, but I think we all know who they are/were. Passive-aggressive commenters are like cancer – it spreads! Passive-aggressive behavior is a pattern of indirectly expressing negative feelings instead of openly addressing them. There’s a disconnect between what a person who exhibits passive-aggressive behavior says and what he or she does. Subtle digs or negative comments are a common form of passive aggression.
