The bottom line IMO is people who are just unwilling to accept that others will have a different opinion...and they take it personal. I think that most of the posters on this forum are not being "personal" in their posts. and...honestly, if someone is, it is their issue. There is a report button though.....but just merely diagreeing is not reportable. We all need to put on our big girl panties and trudge along...each of us is entitled to our opinions. |
IDKW this particular poster was hesitant to post a controversial article - or at least one she believed would be. Maybe to avoid being ridiculed and made to feel stupid by other members here. To be denigrated for merely finding an article interesting and informative to her.
And I agree with Misty - it is sad that others here are hesitant to post about some things.
In essence what we have talked about is this articles' short-comings. She now can read our comments - learn some more - about how others viewed the article and maybe go away with a more critical mindset when pursuing other articles of this genre. That is a win win for her.
