It's not even that. The addition was me copying tags from Red that said that if you try your level best to never gossip, you don't build a habit of it. And people just completely disregarded the part where ne said "try" and "attempt" and took it as a declarative statement about how it's ~morally superior~ to not gossip rather than it being good mental hygiene if you never build a habit of complaining about people and talking behind their backs.
Y'know. Which I can cosign because I do not ever fucking feel tempted to bitch about any individual person by name because I taught myself that that's inappropriate and will channel my frustration in other ways.
