We never ceased to be amazed at how a hand-full of the frequent posters (on this site) seemingly go out of their way to stereotype and degrade other contributors, especially those individuals that are not US citizens and/or are not fully fluent in English.
Obviously, the offending posters are deliberately promoting an ugly form of human prejudice. Attempting to shroud such prejudice in a veil of humor does not diminish the resulting distastefulness.
Without saying, this form of prejudice can unjustifiably scar the feelings and emotions of well-intentioned individuals. From our perspective, such slurs destabilize the aims of multi-cultural participation and reflect poorly on an otherwise excellent website.
Within the field and practice of Six Sigma, we often talk about the essential need for Black Belts and Green Belts to obtain soft skills, as well as hard skills. Well, it would seem that this thread is just another example of why this belief is so true. The absence of soft skills is most apparent.
Perhaps others also have this opinion.
