If you want to have civil discussions on Twitter, it is important to treat other scientists like human beings. Otherwise you are normalising this kind of behaviour.
Those who sit back and say nothing are legitimising the status quo.

I won't name names but I find that @KordingLab is always remarkably tolerant and tactful. Go through this thread and you'll understand what I mean.
I really think a little bit more empathy can go a long way. twitter.com/KordingLab/sta…

This is also not the first time I have observed this, which is why I am reluctant to name particular people.
Check the 'Gradients in the Brain' debate as well: twitter.com/KordingLab/sta…
A lot of the comments are unnecessarily adversarial.

To me it's about recognizing that different opinions are a good thing bc they challenge us and move science forward. I see it as complementarity rather than adversarial. But many researchers unfortunately don't... It's a loss for science! Diversity of thoughts is key to progress!
