If that's considered abrasive, we've really lost out on actual communication for the sake of bullshit etiquette.

- aidenn0 5y agoIt is hard for me to comprehend a point of view where that article is not considered abrasive in tone. Whether or not it bothers you is another question. The tile is in all caps "THE DUMBEST FUCKING THING I’VE EVER READ" and challenges someone to a cage fight at the end. The entire rest of the article could have been honeyed sweetness (which clearly it's not), and that could be enough to call it abrasive. One person I showed it responded very favorably, commenting that the author clearly considered it "...important to get the basic points across violently vecause no one is listening to the non-violent arguments." i.e. this is abrasive, but abrasive to a purpose.
