It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

I wonder if that headline works better than "driving linked to an increased risk of dementia" when it comes to motivating someone to include active transportation in their daily life.

You could invert many of the studies the same way.

In other words, are people more motivated to gain health, or the fear of losing health?
