They must be different to me - I'd feel really bad if I knew the way I spoke to people made them not want to talk to me.
Some don't want to be people pleasers in general. They'd rather break bridges that censor themselves and be less blunt.
Others don't want certain kinds of people to "want to talk to them" in the first place, so they are non-polite towards their kind on purpose.
And a final similar case is wanting people to talk to you only if they can stand that level of discussion/no BS talk/bluntness/sense of humor/profanity/etc. So that you can be yourself among them, and they can be themselves with you, with no facades.
Well, they know there are hundreds of millions of others who use their work, thousands who worked with them, and a trillion dollar industry built on their labor and effort, and that they have spoken their mind, with no BS, and no fake niceties like it's the norm.
I guess they can always take comfort in that.
