Disagreements and Conflicts between Audiophiles have we lost our brotherhood and maturity?

I looked back over my posts and even my audio business dealings over the last 5 years and it seems like we have lost our ability to peacefully disagree or resolve disputes like grown men. Some of my best friends in this life are audiophiles and I enjoy the gear, the music and the brotherhood. I don’t enjoy the senseless spats. The inability to resolve conflicts and the people trying to destroy peoples business and reputations. Thoughts?

Nothing here should be off limits but there are too many thin skinned members who hate being reminded of just how wrong they are on certain matters and for the choices they've made. 

All the best,

As for conflict, while inevitable with self interested humans competing for limited resources, certainly seems to be on the uptick and more celebrated today. Perhaps this due to the privileged feeling their privilege in peril.

The scale is a gradual one depending on geography. When those who have enjoyed primacy regardless of where they live, when they hear the words "equality" and "fairness", they hear "oppression". 

All the best,

For a minute there, I thought you misspelled sentience. 
Looks like it caught up with me. 😄

One thing we all do is assume that most people think and act like we do (normal), until we meet them, the real them (abnormal).
