Fuck that noise. It's representative of a shit state of affairs when 'mastery' of one particular language is necessary to gain respect among fluent speakers. No respect for those who haven't 'mastered' the thing we have mastery of? Fuck, it sounds like a recipe for supremacy or something.

It's precisely about noise. I suppose you haven't had to deal with the kind of people I have or else you may not be regurgitating this politically correct trite. It is simply objectively superior for one man to be understood better than another. It is about the other persons ability to understand them with as little effort as possible, and when you need to ask them "Hey, wait, explain what you mean by this [fucking gibberish noise]" you have just lost time and patience. Respect is not something one is entitled to.

I mean, shit, how is this any different from me jumping in and contributing to a Git repo the language of which I haven't mastered? Should I not lose respect when my PR's have syntax errors or use bad practices? Fuck that noise indeed.
