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.

Thats the minority, also bike specific clothes make riding comfortable, and they are not more expensive then other specielized gear for any other sport. In the same time they are not mandatory, there are countless tests showing you can ride just as good in street clothes as in a bike kit. The issue comes when you want to go for a 1+ hour ride, especially in windy conditions and it gets uncomfortable.
Where you draw the line what sport gear is acceptable? Some people go to bars in football shirts or wear basketball gear as streatwear, skateboarding shoes, etc.
If someone openly hates a group of people, because they wear tight elastic clothing there are other problems in my opinion.
Well I'm not the original poster, and I didn't express "hate" for anyone, but it seems pretty clear that "the minority" of people that you're referencing is the specific people he was criticizing.
Sure thing, didn't mean to attack you. I was referring to the original poster as well, just saw your interpretation what the OP comment meant.
Ah gotcha, my bad
