There's only two things I can't stand in this world. Those who are intolerant of other people's cultures... and the Dutch.

Thank you Michael. In the over 10 years that I have been here I have never felt threatened or harassed because I have been working with dudes who believe in what is written in this article. And they don't just talk the talk. They walk the walk.
Also, is the first time we've had the word "motherfucker" in a front page article?

Sad to see such a serious and much needed message derailed at the end by childish posturing.

You see posturing. I see honesty, confidence, and an unambiguous stance.

Bravo MB. But just to be sure - I can still like Red Sonja, right?

Personally, I would describe Michael's hardline opposition to hate-mongering assholes as a "principled stand," not "childish posturing." I've no patience for "good people on both sides" false equivalences. Time to call assholes out for being assholes.

I hope it's a hardline stand. But I've been here a while and have heard good things said before.
