He’s out of line, but he’s not wrong.
Oh. He’s out of line. This should be a “come into my office on Monday so we can discuss the thing I saw on the internet and your future at this company” conversation that will haunt him over and over.
“come into my office on Monday so we can discuss the thing I saw on the internet and your future at this company”
LOL. And then the employee reacts how, exactly? “Oh noes, I hope you don’t fire me, I’d hate working for more money at a company not run by someone so oversensitive”
I’m not arguing that you shouldn’t speak I’ll of the dead or any of that nonsense, hell I was talking shit about her on the day the announced her death, you’re welcome to check my comment history. But there’s a difference between that and protesting at their funeral.
Shes got family and friends who are grieving - and while she may have been a terrible person (and certainly was, in my view) her family isn’t necessarily, and they deserve their time to grieve as much as any of the rest of us.
I’m not advocating for rewriting her history, either the shitty things she did in her career or the “weekend at Feinstein’s” shit that had been going on for the last decade, but a funeral just isn’t the time and the place to point out what a shitty person she was. A funeral isn’t for the dead, it’s for the living who are mourning them - and they don’t necessarily deserve to be punished for her actions.
He’s not out of line. Many of these politician people don’t respect us in life so we absolutely don’t ever have to respect them in death.
She’ll always have the legacy that she was too mentally incompetent to know when it’s time to retire and let the next generation take over. Worked herself to death and for what exactly
Her and RBG really fucked up badly. But they don’t have to be here to see the fallout.
It’s like to know what Ruth Baker Ginsberg did wrong except die early. She was sharp up to her very last day.
Don’t paint all old people with the same ignorant brush. Try and grow some empathy while you can still use it.
She was 87. Yeah, she was sharp as a tack, no doubt. But 87 isn’t dying early. It sure isn’t dying early when you account for the fact that she was diagnosed with colon cancer back in 99, pancreatic cancer in 09, and had surgery in 2014 because of the cancer.
This has nothing to do with empathy or painting old people with any brush. This has to do with the health of the nation. She could have retired during the Obama years when she was already well past the average age of death and her body was failing to enjoy a few years of retirement.
I didn’t say everyone over 65 needs to be pushed out to sea on an ice floe. If you’re feeling like any of my words are an attack on old people maybe examine why. Because it’s showing more about you than about me.
If I had known the amount of hate I’d get from “my side” if I “overstayed” my welcome I’d also cling to my post out of “fuck you too”
One party holds on their members until their corpse rots in jail, and the other abandons them the minute it smells of fart…
Politics are fun!
nah she was a racist cunt who ruined san francisco i hope she burns in hell
If that kind of working class solidarity is “trashy” then you can call me the trash man. fuck feinstein fuck Mitch McConnell fuck any politician who holds on to power selfishly at the expense of the rest of us.
