Let me tell a story.

Years ago a friend at work and I were talking about Trump. This friend had 3 young girls, 2 of them new twins. Anyways, this friend was so upset that I wasn't upset that Trump made the comment "grab them by the..." I basically said people say dumb shit all the time and that it had no impact in my daily life sorta comment. Well, he said he didn't agree with my stance and wondered how the father of two daughters didn't get upset about this comment and stopped talking to me. Well this friend took a job at Riot Games. You know the place that had this kinda stuff happening all the time.

I chuckle about this...because he took a stand of me not being offended by trumps comments, while taking a paycheck from a company that this culture is by all accounts rampant with.

I haven't talked to him, but if I ever do, you'll guess where I'm gonna direct the conversation.

And the guy still works there...

This is the mindset at Twitter at the moment in my opinion.

I don't forget and I go for the jugular. Learned that skill in the Navy

[QUOTE="planomateo, post: 1430721, member: 12433"] Let me tell a story. Years ago a friend at work and I were talking about Trump. This friend had 3 young girls, 2 of them new twins. Anyways, this friend was so upset that I wasn't upset that Trump made the comment "grab them by the..." I basically said people say dumb shit all the time and that it had no impact in my daily life sorta comment. Well, he said he didn't agree with my stance and wondered how the father of two daughters didn't get upset about this comment and stopped talking to me. Well this friend took a job at Riot Games. You know the place that had this kinda stuff happening all the time. I chuckle about this...because he took a stand of me not being offended by trumps comments, while taking a paycheck from a company that this culture is by all accounts rampant with. I haven't talked to him, but if I ever do, you'll guess where I'm gonna direct the conversation. And the guy still works there... This is the mindset at Twitter at the moment in my opinion. I don't forget and I go for the jugular. Learned that skill in the Navy 🤣 [/QUOTE]
