I'm not even sure such a word exists and I'm not sure how to explain it. But when I meet someone new, I try to remember that I really know nothing about them and not talk about anything subjevtive being awful. If they ask me if I like a particular band, and I don't, I'll say I am not a fan, but I won't say they're garbage.
I generally try not to do that with anyone about anything, but most specifically with people who I've just met and I'm getting to know.
though it’s not a guarantee that other people will always be respectful, too.
Oh yeah, I run into it all the time where people don't do the same in return. That usually doesn't matter to me, because this is one of those things that's about what's important for me to do because of the kind of person I want to be.
The only time it bothers me is when I realize I'm regularly in the company of someone who can't dislike something without shitting on it. Which I'll address with them directly and they'll either dial it back or I'll take myself out of their company as much as I can.
Wow, I didn't know that word and although I'm not 100% sure it's the right word for this, it definitely expresses how I try to live my life. Thank you for sharing it!

I think of all the words I'm reading, conscientious is the best one. It sort of flows the most with the easiest way to say it, which would be something like "I want to be conscientious of other people's likes and dislikes, and not yuck their yum"
