Came here to say that. Killed my curiosity towards Zig in an instant. What a disrespect.

A pity. Saw Zig as something rising but with this kind of toxicity, no thanks.

Don't get me wrong, it is a bit toxic. However, I feel like taking one comment in a larger article and blowing it up out of proportion is just as toxic.


> blowing it up out of proportion is just as toxic

One person decided that something wasn't for them. How is that in the same league as someone in a leadership position being unprofessional?


I personally don't care too much for hierarchies, so I didn't factor this in. You can be toxic at any level.

> You can be toxic at any level

And yet the context is extremely important.

> I didn't factor this in

That's how you get to false equivalencies.

No, you're just putting something into it which doesn't matter to me. Not a false equivalency.


You said:

Making a false equivalency of the supposed toxicity of the commenter's post and the toxicity displayed in the article.

You can just take the L; you don't have to be performatively obtuse about it.


It's probably a lapse, don't read into it too much. You can't expect people to tip toe around. Just give him feedback.
