So if a stranger comes up to you on the street to ask you the time, do you immediately insult them for being an inferior human not deserving of your respect?

In my opinion, not giving respect to fellow humans by default is the terrible choice.

No, I am neutral to them. Respect is earned. But it is a spectrum, not a binary choice.

Not every walking person deserves to be called a "fellow human".
