Feminist media site Jezebel is suspending publication, as its owner reckons with a downturn in online advertising.

G/O Media chief Jim Spanfeller announced the move in a memo to staff, calling it an "excruciating" decision.

wow so brave, thanks for commenting to show how little you care.......?

I mean, they’re allowed to comment. You don’t have to only have a positive opinion to be allowed to make a comment

I didn't say they're not allowed to comment. It was a shitty and useless comment, and I'm allowed to point that out, as well as pointing out the irony of taking the time to comment that you don't care. Thanks bud.

Your condescension makes you sound insufferable.

It's because these former mods of /r/ whatever have to gatekeep stuff instead of the age old forum behavior of zero moderation and move along and don't feed trolls. They feel entitled to meaninglessly comment about how someone's comment was meaningless.

The condescension was very much intentional, thanks for noticing.

I'm just as entitled to my opinion as you are to yours.

I didn't find anything wrong with your opinion, and I never said you weren't entitled to anything. I'm just pointing out the dumb irony of taking the time to comment on something that you supposedly DON'T care about, in order to tell the world how LITTLE you care. If you really didn't care, you would have kept scrolling.
