I'd say even arguing, so long as it's in good faith is healthy online conversation.
What makes a conversation unhealthy exactly? I'd say mostly things like
not arguing in good faith (common from the right wing)
not respecting other commenters perspectives
insulting others
calling them liars without evidence
tribalism and group think
getting unnecessarily heated
needing the last word
ganging up on people
I have a tendancy to call people cunts. Idk why the americans get so mad abt it for me its just a common greeting.
