Well, my observations aren't cliches but come from actual contact with these people. And they aren't geeks, certainly not (that some of them actually wrote some perl programs doesn't make them geeks). My "insults" are factual observations and provide some additional information to form a better picture of the German pirates. And I didn't say they're anti-business because I don't like their dresses but that their appearance is typical for their political agenda and I'm not surprised.
That they dress so badly is--especially in the political domain--an important point. That they (okay, some of them, but the few stink for the whole group) don't shower is also negative when they approach people on the streets for handing out information and recruit supporters. They look and behave like an internet joke in RL. When they greet new people with "Aaaaargh!" this is certainly the way to success...
I'm not rude. I'm just telling the facts. The political domain is unforgiving and they should be thankful for my feedback.
- VMG 15y agoWhile I share your viewpoint, your wording is rude and insulting. Also the comment is not exactly on topic, so it is perceived as a typical internet rant from somebody who doesn't read the article. Nothing wrong with smoking pot though.
