"Civility" is just a coded word for the comfortable, white, property owning members of society to tell the oppressed to not be too disruptive to their lives as they fight for justice. Every time someone calls for civility, it really just means "do less". Don't be fooled.

And "Entitlement" is a coded word for telling the impoverished that being treated as less than human is normal, and they're bad people for wanting anything more.
