Sue - I have to agree with you. “We have seen the problem & it is us”
The other thing we need to remember is that the perceived tone of a post is not necessarily the tone in which it was written. We read things thru the lens of our own biases. I may post something I believe is neutral and others read it as a negative or harsh criticism. (That’s why I stopped using intra-office e-mail and texts years ago. I started to just walk down the hall.). We also have a tendency to attack in our response when we perceive we are threatened, which makes matters worse.
Nowadays it appears that only people on the same side of an issue will concede to each other that they both may have valid points. The gray is gone and only black and white survive. Sad!
