taking the stance that the exploitation of children is unacceptable and punishing anyone who does work with those who exploit children is not moral grandstanding.
- netcan 7y agoWhat do you consider grandstanding?
- pgcj_poster 7y ago"Grandstanding" is when someone talks about problems that don't affect me. For instance, if someone says that we should prevent child slavery, that's grandstanding because I'm not a slave. On the other hand, if someone says that whiteboard interviews for engineers are unfair, that's not grandstanding because I'm an engineer. Also, if I agree with something, then it's free speech and therefore not grandstanding.
- celticmusic 7y agograndstanding is when you say or do something for no other purpose than how it looks to others.

- tssva 7y agoDidn't the parents that are suing exploit their kids for economic gain? Why should they now be rewarded with profit from a lawsuit rather than imprisoned for doing so?
- leshow 7y agoIt's also an incredibly easy position to take when all you have to do is say it's wrong. I think that's what they are getting at.
- darawk 7y agoOk, so I guess you'll be going to prison too, then? Or do you not own a smart phone?
