Um, yes. A toxic environment is toxic.

Whether someone who isn't as threatened by the toxicity "bucks up" and lets it roll off their back or even participates or not. It's still toxic.

E.g. don't tell me "racism isn't toxic except that you're sensitive and choose to be offended by it."



> toxic environment is toxic.

agree. but online trolling or banter isn't a toxic environment so its not toxic.

you would censor them? now THAT is a toxic environment.
