Is it irony that Raganwald is trying to group shame someone(1) for stating their opinion?
1 - they have to know with certainty that people will dig into the cause of their rather childish blowout. If people want to quit something for internal reasons, they simply quit. If they want to apply some leverage they try a public blowout.
- andrewflnr 13y agoIt wasn't childish. If he hadn't announced it, there would eventually be people asking "what happened to raganwald?" If it's worth anything, he didn't give the reason until asked.
- corresation 13y agoHaving a tantrum and trying to raise a mob because someone says something that you disagree with is, under the most charitable of interpretations, bully-like and absolutely childish. His original comment was fishing for a query, and such was guaranteed.
- andrewflnr 13y agoYou could argue that he was fishing for the question. I'd rather not assume that when there's a perfectly reasonable charitable interpretation. But I see no evidence that he was "trying to raise a mob". His actions, as far as I can tell, are perfectly consistent with having good intentions: it would have been a bit rude, perhaps even cowardly, to just disappear, the question of why was inevitable (as you said), and he answered honestly. If a mob raises itself, that's really not his responsibility. Really, it's not. I can't see what he should have dinner differently.
