Shrug. Sometimes an off-topic discussion can make
people relate more
to others on a medium that is lacking physical presence so it's a
judgment call of whether or not continuing it is a good or a bad
thing. You make it easy to make that call.
Absolutely. You posted a cheap, stereotypical video that's solely made
to exploit a certain narrow range of emotions where truly humane
feelings have no place and are even debased. It is expected that under
those restrictive adopted limits one would immediately feel outraged at
a same strong opinion going the other way. Because there's no leeway,
despite all the pseudo goodness and pseudo chivalry, to squarely face
the exploitation aspect of such propaganda.
