The articles are never particularly insightful; it usually is self-absorbed vapid fluff; and now it's apparently become a dumping ground where young 20-something art-history majors can get by-lines to aid their burgeoning journalistic ambitions. Well, so long as they have vaginas, anyway.

This *honestly* doesn't angry or condescending to you?

What if you read something like the following in a post:

The deals by these young companies are never particularly stable; it usually is just something that looks big on paper; and the companies have apparently become a dumping ground where young 20-something Harvard MBA's can get a reputation to aid their burgeoning business ambitions. Well, so long as they have dicks, anyway.

How well-disposed would you feel toward the author of that post, and how worthwhile would you feel it would be to engage in a discussion with them?

Sincerely

PS: and you told someone else to fuck off (on the XY Column Petition thread) after he wrote what (at least to me) was a fairly polite post...makes me wonder about that anger thing, personally...
