Wow. The answer to people calling the founders of Basecamp on their bullshit was…to publish more bullshit. 😳 We're not talking about some bogeyman Twitter mob here. Basecamp's *own employees* are unhappy. I'm dumbfounded. Are they trying to destroy their legacy on purpose?!

One of the most disappointing things about Farscape for me is how the passengers interact with Moya & Talyn. It’s more parasitic than symbiotic, to the point of being exploitative to the point of colonial for the Pilot & the ship. 1/3

There's something fundamentally broken with a workplace culture in which rules "have" to be made to end conversations on certain subjects. If the employees care for the company and its success, AND if a subject is distracting from that success, they will self-moderate.
