I mean seriously, the employees were mad at issues that didn't exist. Claiming that laughing at innocent jokes can lead to genocide is just dramatic.... it is pure nonsense.
>Same too with the other name that was primarily made fun of in that Campfire session: [another customer name]. It's a surname that follows the Nordic style of "Son of [that customer name]". And it's again funny for phonetic reasons, because it starts with [word fragment from customer name]. [That word fragment] is just a funny word!
Why is this so hard to understand? The best way to describe those employees, honestly, is they are social justice warriors, the very definition of it.

Repeatedly insisting on saying that your colleagues are enabling genocide... how could anyone think this is conductive to a good working relationship with you colleagues?

This is why we can't have nice things.
