can you rephrase this without the acerbic vitriol? I can't really take a security discussion seriously with someone who can't communicate professionally.

  Treating people this way is not itself professional. The inhumanity of the people with power and the willingness to exert it upon others in this fashion is deserving of a little, as you say, vitriol. (I would say "contempt".) Treat. People. Decently.

      Weren't you just complaining about profanity and name-calling?

  Ah, yes — merely supporting fake bonuses during a historic economic crisis is perfectly professional, but describing that as awful is “acerbic vitriol”.

    I'm sorry, did you read the post? It is full of profanity and name calling.

      “Full of profanity and name calling” I said shitty. No other swearing and no name calling. What exactly are you reading?

  Imagine using the phrase "acerbic vitriol" when simply saying "sarcasm" would suffice. I cannot take a discussion seriously who cannot communicate professionally and doesn't know when to use fluffy academic lexicon
