While I think this post is silly, the extent to which it’s getting downvoted when much worse posts get upvoted regularly on the forum when they are written using ingroup-speak and support ingroup conclusions is really inexcusable. For this reason I’m upvoting it even though I don’t like the post at all.

Well, I am surprised of the amount of downvoting and the lack of comments. I would have been glad of engaging with opposite arguments.
