How is it a nonstory? The article was about a culture clash and not taking the position of either side, but you implied the author said to not wear a wetsuit. I wasn't aware of this clash of cultures, as dumb as it is, so the story worked for me as a human interest story; not everything has to be about wars and mass shootings.
- NickC25 4y agoA non-story in the sense that a bunch of entitled people caring way too much about what is a trivial decision of someone else that has no effect on others whatsoever. This isn't about wearing a wetsuit for a competition. It's as if I made a big deal if you decided to wear a short sleeve shirt versus a long sleeve shirt during your workout....even though your choice of attire has no impact on my workout whatsoever.
- jarden 4y agoYou're missing the point. While trivial to you, the story is an example of the way in which individuals make choices that reflect their values and priorities. It's not just about the clothes we wear, but how we present ourselves to the world, and what we stand for. Therefore, the story can be seen as having relevance beyond the simple act of wearing or not wearing a wetsuit.
