It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Every time someone tells me to be careful riding the bike I remind them that people looking at their phones is the biggest risk above anything else. Immediately asking if they can tell other people makes me think they remember it at least for them. Hopefully.

That is precisely why you need to be extra careful: Idiots in vehicles are, by far, the biggest threat to cyclists, pedestrians, skaters, scooters, and drivers.

Sounds like a good reason to be careful riding a bike to me.
