We should certainly make sure that they feel the full effects of their decisions, in PR, the employment market, and in public praise or ridicule.

They will feel the full effects of their decisions, whatever those may be. I suspect they will not be large. I certainly can’t be arsed to care about this and I don’t see why you’d exert effort to “make sure” of anything here.

I like the way you phrased that; it's perfectly neutral.

You should withdraw this personal attack as it is not in keeping with the ethos of HN with which you agreed to abide.

You will note that my statement was carefully neutral and did not endorse either side of the issue. WeWork also carefully did not use "blood" as a reason for their policy, instead describing it as a global warming/emissions related measure.

In any case, I am more in favor of people not doing numerically and scientifically unsupportable things to folks who work for them.

You have a point about "you" being a personal attack, I don't see a button to delete though. Should have said, of all the causes we could take up
