    They don’t greet ‘because they know you already, so what does it matter’.

    “Please” and “Thank you” are foreign concepts to them.

    They feel they can say or talk to you anyway they want.

    Interrupting others constantly, disregarding personal boundaries, or showing zero consideration for other people’s time or feelings. It’s like they never learned how to put themselves in someone else’s shoes.

    At a public Easter event they grab every egg and put it in their kids basket instead of letting the kids actually participate. At Halloween they take the whole bowl someone has left on the porch.

    People transiting a restaurant to get to their table and studying themselves with your table, using their hands as they go by.

    Thinking respect is earned and not given.

    Your presence is earned, it will do damage to yourself if you engage in disrespect to someone because you think the person doesn’t deserve respect.

    How they maintain a communal space. I’ve had roommates that would leave messes everywhere, making it clear they didn’t care about anyone’s comfort but their own.

    Another example is at work, sometimes coworkers don’t clean up after themselves so I do it.

    Illegally deporting people without due process and then refusing to fix it even after many judges demanded that it be fixed.

    My brother in law could not understand why we would volunteer places. Not just that he thought volunteering was a waste of time. His brain legit could not process why someone would help someone without being paid. I really don’t like him, but my sister married him so here we are.

    A lack of basic manners. If they can’t say please and thank you then how can you expect them to do any more than that?

    Not saying please and thank you to people in a “subservient” position. Such as a server, a bartender, cleaning people, taxi driver, retail clerk, etc.

    It means they don’t see these people as humans. To them, these people are no different than a toilet. A necessary inanimate object that functions as a means to an end.

    Basic lack of humanity.

    Okay but I’m sure they would like their job to be a little easier now wouldn’t they? So maybe stop being a dick and throw away your trash

    Lying. Stealing. Mocking. It is shocking to me to full grown adults make fun of people out loud, in public. They never psychologically matured beyond junior high school.

    Chronically late and not seeing a problem with it. I’m aware that there are different cultural norms surrounding time and punctuality, but I’m talking about people who just truly don’t care that being chronically late is rude and inconsiderate to other people’s schedules, maybe because consequences and maturity hasn’t caught up with them, or they were never taught manners🤷‍♀️

    Children/teenagers talking to adults like they’re peers, cursing, full of attitude, over nothing. Just existing in the same area as an adult and it feels like too many of them are trying to prove something with the in your face hostile attitudes.

    No please, no thank you, takes no responsibility for anything, doesn’t pick up after him/her self, litters, etc.

    They can’t distinguish between respect and fear.

    There are a lot of parents who think respect is children being 100% obedient without question or sense of self. That respect is about power and its use (abuse), and not about kindness. Those kids grow up thinking that they’re the only ones who know or understand respect because they’re the only ones who think of respect in that framework.

    But respect is about kindness. It’s about valuing others as you value yourself. Caring about others and their sense of well-being. It’s not about obedience, it’s not about authority. It’s about giving others dignity that you would want them to give to you.

    Anyone, male or female, that doesn’t hold the door open for the person right behind them.

  52. Ok-Cow-1988 Avatar

    They don’t respect your boundaries. They don’t respect your religion. They don’t respect you and oftentimes they don’t respect themselves. Regardless of whether you were taught respect growing up. It’s a common sense thing that I believe everyone should have. And so that being said, you accept that they know it’s right but they don’t practice it because honestly they don’t respect anyone nor will they
