I was referring to the parent comment demanding "unqualified outrage", and relating this to "sexism in the geek community", which I felt was a little excessive considering it was one asshole artist who had drawn some offensive comic strips consisting exclusively of male characters.
- tptacek 13y agoSo, what you really mean is, people should not attend PAX if they have a problem with PAX, and they should urge people not to attend PAX if they feel the need, but they should make sure that their urging conforms to a set of standards you have about what is and isn't a valid argument.
- parennoob 13y ago> but they should make sure that their urging conforms to a set of standards you have Not at all. I'm not saying they should do anything. I'm merely commenting that expecting an artist to stop drawing something you don't like because you go to his convention to sell something is a little ridiculous. But hey, if that's your thing, feel free to erupt in unqualified outrage :)
