There's a complete lack of any attempt to empathize, just a quick rush to (anecdotally) show how everything is okay, it's just this one thing, she's overreacting, etc. Which is exactly the kind of thing that causes the most problems for women, because the result of these actions is an effective sweeping under the rug of the very real problems facing women in tech. I mean, most of the comments very obviously didn't even read the whole article before rushing in a froth to make a post attacking a single isolated statement.
- camelite 13y agoI had just decided against posting the following flame-bait comment until I read this... Now I can't resist: "The problem with conspiracy theorists is that any argument questioning the existence of their pet conspiracy can and will be used by them as evidence that the conspiracy exists. They are literally impossible to reason with." Sorry...
