Please tell me what “More respect, less attack” means.
Many thanks.
It’s a phrase created by Chinese speakers of English meaning ‘Please be less aggressive and show more respect to others’.[YSaerTTEW443543]

Shouldn’t it be ‘the less attack, the more respect’ grammatically and logically?
I don’t see why that would work at all in the context. For a start it indicates an exponential relationship between the two which the original does not really carry. The original does not mean that if one is increased the other is automatically decreased.
