"So what you are saying is because it is a sensitive topic it can't be discussed? Upvotes or not, I simply don't agree, and what both of these people have said is true whether it was sensitive or not.

You'll usually be downvoted if you suggest this on, say, a Jetbrains release or something. All this taken together, to me, provides some amount of evidence to me that this stuff is just characteristic of the kinds of employment that most people on this forum have, rather than some sort of philosophical position people have on this issue.
