    The new internet feels like a workplace where people want to run to HR to report anyone who acts out so that they’ll get what’s coming to them.

    This. Probably the most thing I hate about today’s internet, bunch of over-protected snowflakes who get offended by anything.

      And what’s worse is how that’s spilled into everyday life. Movies like Blazing Saddles and Revenge of the Nerds would get obliterated if they were released today. Everyone’s immediate reaction to something they find unseasonable is to go absolutely nuts and cancel it instead of “huh, whatever.”

      I still think we need to take most of the safety signs down and let darwinism take its course.
