Of course. Far better to be like you and the other mouth-breathers here feel it's worse to point out someone's shallowness, than actually being shallow jerk.

Shhhh, you're only supposed to make fun of them weird furriners....

Freedom *of* speech doesn't equate freedom *from* speech. A persons freedom of speech lets them say whatever they want. My freedom of speech lets me point out the idiocies inherent in their statement.

Oh, a flounce. How adorable.

Riiiight. So you're trying to get your critics to explain everything while simultaneously refusing to do so for your initial arguments.

ObMonty Python: See the privilege inherent in the system!

Is everyone missing the point, or is your point flawed? The first requires everyone to be wrong, the second...well.

A poorly explained argument is a weak argument. If you can't take the time to formulate your thoughts properly, don't expect others to to make allowances for it.

Yeah, we just need originality! It's like someone's written Pride & Prejudice with zombies, or with Sherlock Holmes in the 21st century (perhaps even with an Asian female Watson!), or the War of the Roses with dragons & ice zombies! Thing's should be left as they are!

Projecting much?

Heh. Just the sheer cluelessness of some the dudes on that tumblr is hilarious. Good to know that not-getting-it transcends cultural & geographic boundaries.

Good gods, the Forbes article is just pure corporate-speak.... A HR exec essentially blaming "pre-conceptions", instead of any of the well-documented instances of a hostile work environment (ie, the #1reasonwhys with multiple sources)? Not providing any details on what these alleged difficulties in finding qualified…

Well done sir.

What, no burning bush?

That whooshing sound you hear? It's the point, missing you completely. But that's alright, you just go ahead with your persecution complex.

Obvious troll is obvious.

Word. This looks like it's more based of what I-think-a-man-out-of-time would be like, rather than any actual thought as to what someone who went through the great depression, New Deal, Union-busting etc would actually think. It's cute and all, but seriously lightweight.

Look up the term "hostile work environment". And "Harassment".

Word. What kind of company hires strippers to perform at an official company function? It's like they've never heard the term "hostile work environment". Here's hoping their HR department kicks out the idiot who organised & approved the entertainment.
