Linda Park verbally abused by Manny Coto

Maybe not California, and lets not all Nominate Florida too quickly, but if Washington DC gets it's statehood, maybe kicking someone out of the Republic is cheaper than replacing all those flags with 50 stars, for new flags with 51 stars?

 

Point being your boss isn't your "coworker."

 

Only because a typical boss usually doesn't actually do work.

 

Yeah,they are. As are the people who work for you. Everyone you work with is a co-worker.

 

They managed just fine when Alaska and Hawaii were added, they can do it again.

 

^^^
Yeah, I guess you missed 2008 and 2012.

1874 – Election Riot of 1874, Barbour County, Alabama

My vision of America is the Opening credits to Family Ties.



Peaceful, non violent protest, marching, sitting or occupying where you meet your soulmate.

Rioting is reserved for special occasions.

 

Irrelevant. And yet you are still wrong anyway, because a coworker is someone who works at the same company, regardless of position. Besides, it still doesn't justify telling her to shut the fuck up.

 

Never been a secret, actually.

 

To you Subcommander is "Shut the fuck up" better, worse or the same as "Shut up"?

There's a conversation in the side bar of her Instagram where people are consoling Linda for having heard the word fuck, more so than that she was told to shut up.

 

Football matches?

 

TO someone who you know personally? I'd say it was worse.
It's not profanity that offends me. I say fuck a lot in my personal life. But I think there is a difference when you are addressing someone you personally know, and say the word fuck in a non-joking manner.

And BTW it's not that I am defending Park's political position. I just think it is a little messed up someone she once knew addressed her like that. Especially when they both work in the entertainment industry. It just smacks as unprofessional. Had he said Shut up instead, it wouldn't have bothered me at all.

 

I've never watched a TV show because I assumed the people behind said show were nice. Coto produced entertaining Star Trek, I really don't care about the rest.

 

Unfortunately, if there's anything we've learned from all this, it's that the TV business is never "nice".

 

Life in general rarely ever is.

 

Her instagram follows Racism and hate crimes on a national level... or at least the most recent posts I looked at did.

There's no comparison.

 

Frankly, I've got no problem with people telling each other to shut the fuck up, even personal or professional contacts, & especially if I happen to think they're talking a lot of shit. (Not that I got a full grasp of the context here really). It's not like saying it means they've got do it. Maybe it's my upbringing, or environment or maybe I'm just an asshole, but to be honest, if this were 2 men & one thrashed the other this way, it would be a non-issue. Imagine Norman Reedus telling Jeffery Dean Morgan to shut the fuck up in a tweet. Even if it wasn't a joke, there still wouldn't be an outrage. What I find peculiar, is that if he'd just typed "Oh, STFU" it would likely have caused less offense. What the world needs now is thicker skins. There's shit everywhere you step. Have sturdy souls. It's not a civil rights issue if some nimrod tells you to STFU. Just tell them in a fucking pig's eye. Nothing shows character better in my opinion, than standing toe to toe with a loudmouth, instead of crying foul
