Very true. However, the content of the article isn't being addressed by many, only the manner in which it is delivered.

If I’d known the article itself was nothing but crude, juvenile sexual insults I would never have started it.

And yet you were compelled to read all the way down to my reply to chime in and address the issue with me instead of directing your angst towards the one who posted the article. Damn strange behavior.

FR does have a policy against that, btw, which I guess is why the poster excerpted it.
Yep, it seems to me the guidelines were followed. No problems or else the thread would have been pulled by now.
Perhaps the poster should have posted a (strong language at link) warning?

I started to read the article because the poster had excerpted it so that only the quotes from John Solomon, whom I think is excellent, were visible. If I’d known the article itself was nothing but crude, juvenile sexual insults I would never have started it.
That very thing is the very definition of good writing. It's called "a hook"...and, it seems, you bit.

You replied to me and I always check my pings because it’s rude to ignore somebody. You replied to me, I replied to you. Matter ended.
