I really can't tell if this is right or wrong. On one hand, these comments are hurtful and obviously stupid. On the other hand, this post is 13 years old. We all say or think stupid things sometimes, especially when we're naive about a topic. Isn't it possible his stance has changed? All this publicity now may have ruined this guy's career forever, all because the scribbled down some random stupid thoughts more than a decade ago?
Downvote me, but I am truly sorry for him. Stuff like this makes me never want to post on the public web under my real name, who knows what will be marked as "offensive" a few decades from now.
This is how it works now, yes it's extreme.
But if you say something demeaning over women or blacks the response is much much worse. Here the guy just got transferred to another cushy job with big pay, not even fired. Jews are fair game unfortunately
> All this publicity now may have ruined this guy's career forever,
You do seem to live in extremely polite and enlightened world where just a transfer is ruining career. Out in real world today one would have their ass out of job instead of mild reprimand for such blog post.
