  3. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The statement does not promote understanding or empathy, as it dismisses the concerns as 'comically thin.' [-1]
  4. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    It engages in criticism but lacks constructive dialogue, using phrases like 'gone off the deep end,' which could be seen as a personal attack on 'pro-democracy' forces. [-1]
