But, on the other hand, much of what we have to moderate is, in fact, people being disrespectful and/or undiplomatic.
The difference between something being derisive or not is a matter of degree and context. I would be hard pressed to imagine a use of "nerdrage" to describe the behavior of another poster such that it was not either derisive or dismissive and personal.
