Dr. Bob,
Maybe what's deemed civil or uncivil by you could be related to personality characteristics or defense mechanisms you possibly identify more with as opposed to those you might understand less?
Weaker personality characteristics, like fearfulness (me), or for example, introversion or sensitivity, are sometimes viewed as more negative by our culture than, for example, extroversion or narcissitic traits.
That's all I can think of to possibly explain this confusion I have with moderation here-civil vs. uncivil determinations.
