Should "aggression" be considered "antisocial"?When I think of antisocial behavior I think of withdrawal and avoidance. Silence. If you're picking fights, that's still "social" behavior, I think. It's just conflating it with gatekeeping and alienation practices that inhibit growth and prosperity - which isn't good for the future of society. I sometimes think "society" isn't viewed objectively. That there are people who will turn every collective noun into an identity. That will include people who do nothing, while excluding undesirables that contribute nevertheless.
