Telling people to "be nice" isn't being nice.

Paradox of tolerance. Someone needs to correct the grumpy lady if she wants to keep participating.

I am not calling out the need for the request but pedantically suggesting there is a nice to ask someone to be nice and 'be nice' isn't it.

Oooh, gotcha. Yeah, it's a rude way to put it, yes. Necessary to do, but could be worded nicer.

Can you provide a context in which it is?

[–] nickwitha_k@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Person A being catty towards Person B.

Parent or friend to Person A: Be nice.

I disagree. Without at least a "please" in there it cannot be considered nice.
