Just another example of hypocritical, bullying, behavior.
- thephyber 11y agoCould you please explain why you think it's hypocritical? I'm guessing it's related to the anti-bullying campaigns of the Reddit site, but I thought those were spearheaded by the company and not the community.
- paulhauggis 11y agoMany are against bullying in the community, yet have no problem bullying the CEO and trying to get her fired simply because they don't agree with her decisions. We don't even have all of the information, yet this doesn't seem to matter. Should gays be bullied simply because we don't agree with their lifestyle? I shouldn't be surprised as this seems to be the way our society now works: anyone that doesn't agree with you, bully them into submission and ruin their lives, business, or reputation (sometimes all 3)..punishing them for their disagreement. The new catholic church from the middle ages. I've seen the same thing on Facebook with the passing of gay marriage: Anyone saying they disagree with the ruling gets destroyed and called a bigot, yet those same people can say horrendous things about religious groups and people with no repercussions. It's this sort of backward thinking that makes me realize how much smarter I am than anyone else.
- studentrob 11y agoWhat's wrong with being hypocritical? I'm pretty sure we all are. Nobody likes bullies, and we all stand up against them, but we also probably inadvertently offend someone every day. CEOs, celebrities, etc put themselves in a highly visible position with some responsibility attached. I think they can understand they won't win everyone's support all the time, otherwise they would not be there. The thing to do here is move forward, focus on getting all the facts out, and answer any community questions so they are not left in the dark.
