    And good; it’s ridiculous, virtue-signalling bullshit and you’ve got to let it go.

    You’re expressing a VERY strong negative reaction on words in an email signature. Why are you so threatened by what someone puts in their email signature? How does it challenge or change what you are that you’ve put so much thought into it to get this angry about it?

      Because it’s very, very silly identity politics and the majority of people agree. You’ve got to let it go and focus on important things, like the insane and ever-increasing wealth inequality.

        Identity politics for email signatures? There was no federal policy around email signatures like this until folks like you decided to make it politics forcing removal.

            Do you find my statement offensive? Are you not celebrating this new policy? How would you not be folks that share your mindset be like you?

              I don’t know if celebrating is the right word. I’m not American and would never have voted for Trump, but in isolation this seems fairly benign and I think a majority of people will be glad to hear it. You might disagree, that’s fine, I’m not interested in an extended argument about it.
