I edited my top level comment in which I wrote that the GP was condescending and opinionated - but I don't agree that the tone was without basis:
> stranger, you are going to need to defend your down-vote.
> Watch the video, see the cartoon milk squirting breasts. Click on the creator links. Look at their tumblrs. Look at their aesthetic. Discuss the issue. Sorry if the content that they put in their video makes you uncomfortable, but it is on-topic for this post and I'm pointing out that it is there
The entire bulk of GP's edits are in imperative form, and give a very strong impression of exactly that: condescending moralizing - I could be wrong, but given how rare repeated imperatives in English are, I would like to know why you think otherwise.
- glibgil 10y agoThe moralizing is about people actually reading what I wrote and the observations I am contributing. It is not about moralizing morality. I like cartoon boobs, but I would never put them in a project launch video and I am amazed whenever female sexuality creeps into tech promotion. I also personally like the aesthetic of the artists who made this. I'm just amazed that there is this cultural blindspot to this type of presentation
