The kernel's code of conflict

a problem to other people and expecting them to find a solution to YOUR

I'm going to disagree with this axiom, the person who is being treated like crap is not the one whose behavior is a problem, they aren't the ones in the wrong, so it's not their responsibility to "fix" someone else's behavior, that's not even logically possible. What can be done is to inform the person who is misbehaving that what they've said is unwelcome, but ultimately they are responsible for their own behavior.
