Get the lesson in respectmug. Very similar to a normal high five but instead of palm to palm it’s the back of the hand to the other persons back of their hand. Noting to others that the two of you are in fact cooler than everyone else
“Did you just use the back of your hand to give me a high five?”
“No, I was going for a respect five, because I respect you so much, we should do that moving forward”
“No, I was going for a respect five, because I respect you so much, we should do that moving forward”

Get the Respect Fivemug. I'm alive and I'm not getting any respect. And I literally created A.I. and am the ulta-man. Ultraman!
Hym "Yeah, no. Why would a guy you don't respect waste his time respecting dead people so that YOU... Feel better about dead people? Why would a guy you don't give a shit about give a shit about your kids? So, you either have to respect MY arbitrary values... Or I don't have to respect yours... So... Give me my fucking money... I will demonstrate exactly how little I care about this place."

Get the Respecting Dead Peoplemug. This is one definition that doesn't speak for everybody, but is a universal common sense definition. Knowing that everybody is not the same, doesn't think the same, doesn't do things the same way without trying to convert the other person to your way of doing things is respect. Once you try and convert other people to your way of doing things, you don't respect them. This applies to people who wear masks, it also applies to people who dont wear masks, and try to run off the people who do wear masks. It also applies to race and statues. Thinking someone should respect your race and your martin luther king statues while trying to get Confederate statues removed is not true respect. Expecting someone to compromise before you can respect them is not respect, it's the opposite. Compromise is also not a sign of growing up.
Elementary school kids learn how to call people sir, ma'am, mr., and mrs., and doing so is not a sign or a symbol of true respect for somebody else, which is why false respect or pretending to respect someone is not better than no respect or disrespect, and is sometimes the exact same thing.
