Итак, bitching for dummies 🐆 Немного теории коммуникаций.

Positive impoliteness:
The positive impoliteness’ main objective is to attack the opponent’s positive face by using the sub-strategies. The possible sub-strategies are ignoring, being disinterested and unsympathetic, use inappropriate identity markers, seek disagreement, making the other feel uncomfortable, calling the other names and so on.

Negative Impoliteness:
These strategies serve as a means of threatening the negative face, by trying to invade the other person’s space and not respecting their boundaries or privacy.
