Comments by "JLH" (@Kyarrix) on "Cast Iron part 1: Buying Guide and Seasoning New Cast Iron" video.

do we have to have the cringe-worthy sexist comments along with the advice with respect to cast-iron? I'm not going to say a word about the speech affectation and the over-the-top down-home usage, but come on.

Ralph Joseph Are you okay? It's not normal to respond to a stranger with so much rage and venom. Your intention is to upset me by name calling and ugly words but my response is to think about how hard it has to be to walk around with so much anger and hatred. I hope you are able to get better. You do yourself much more damage than you do me - is this the good Christian values? If you're an example of the target audience, you've made my point better than I could ever hope to.

Ralph Joseph I appreciate the apology, I'll offer this back in the spirit of your response. When someone says something online that annoys you deeply, try to approach them in the way that you just did right now rather than with rage and hate. If you want to make the world a better place rage and hate are never going to do it. If you had asked me why I responded the way I did, I would have told you and we could have had a conversation about it. You might have been better able to understand my perspective and I could have understood yours without anyone falling into rage and anger. People can differ, and even differ deeply in their approach to things and how they feel about important (and unimportant) issues but still live together in a community and respect each other. You can't have respect though where the first thing a person does is rage and curse and engage in name-calling. This argument is a microcosm of the country at-large, where both sides are so angry that they view the other side as irredeemably evil and stupid. When you view the person on the other side of a discussion in these terms you can do anything to them; you can shout at them, punch them, drive over them with your car at a demonstration as we've already seen, you can take their rights away, you can do anything. This is very dangerous path for all of us. It's far more important to try to understand why the person on the other side of a conversation holds the point of view that they do and then trying to understand that and share your own point of view. You might find in the end that there is room for a compromise or at least a place where you can both coexist peacefully.

Jessica W. If you don't find a sexist attitude to be a problem, then that is indeed a problem for you. You might want to not be complicit in the very things that people fight for on your behalf.
