Let&#x27;s not assume our feelings about things are universal. That way, we won&#x27;t be surprised that there are people in the world who don&#x27;t feel exactly the same way we do about things we consider important. While we&#x27;re not assuming that, let&#x27;s not assume that our way of doing things is normal or correct, so that we&#x27;re not tempted to say things like &quot;you <i>seriously</i> don&#x27;t do [this thing I do]?&quot; which serves no purpose other than to make our beliefs seem more important at the expense of others&#x27;.<p>Not everyone feels the same way you do about their family, their loved ones, or their social bonds. Your comment makes it seem like your way of doing things it the correct or normal way, and only crazy people or weirdos would even think about doing it any other way. Which has the potential to be very alienating for a good deal of people in a community that encompasses many diverse people all over the world.
