Snowflake junta on GV

Really surprised to see the level of name-calling, personal attacks and poor use of language happening on a public forum for professionals. I don't know how we came to this point as a country where you can't even have a civil discussion about topics without someone starting to abuse people for no good reason. It's the same thing playing out on other social media platforms as well. Most of this vitriol seems to be coming from a particular section of people, and it's obvious to everyone. What I don't get is why they indulge in such behaviour when they could be speaking to their potential partners, employers, colleagues and maybe even future co-founders. Do they not realise this, or do they not care? Why has mature conversation and civil discourse died such a horrible death in India? Who is responsible? Can this be fixed?

I posted questioning if special previlages to one gender is harassing another in our IT world. It was leading to a good discussion & frankly it's been underspoken by all. Want to know what exactly was wrong with that? How do I do this without revealing my identity? (I have a screenshot of notifications)

Engagement profiteering and sympathy farming off someone's passing away is just pathetic and shameful. They will stoop to any level if it gets them a few hundred likes and increases conversion to their actual business. Stop gathering sympathy using the poor fellow please!

I generally keep it at recent so all new posts are on my feed But now it is mandatorily shifting to Popular I don't want to see old posts, show me new 😭

My man over the last 3 days. 😷

Just wanted to understand why this happens? Do you get acutely conscious of the feedback flowing through the comments? Do you feel judged? Is it something to do with the sharp turns that the conversation in the comments take? Do you feel bullied? Belittled? Victimised? Which one is it?

Thank God! We have Grapevine ❤️ because LinkedIn makes me 🤢🤮
