+<p>2017-07-10</p>
+<p>I&#8217;m not normally one to comment or even really care about &#8220;drama&#8221; within our design industry. Opinions are just that and should just be consumed at face value. But this week I was moderately annoyed with a subset of designers in design-land.</p>
+<h3 id="critique-the-critics">Critique the critics</h3>
+<p>Designer&#47;design critic Eli Schiff tweeted his thoughts about the newly released promo video from Framer showcasing their new gradient feature. See the initial tweet below:</p>
+<p>Let me begin by saying my views on this comment: I don&#8217;t care. I honestly don’t feel strongly one way or the other about them making a video promo for gradients. Could it have just been a simple text tweet? Sure. Does it really matter that they decided to make a video for it? Not at all.</p>
+<p>But this isn’t the problem.</p>
+<p>Other designers took to Twitter and started attacking Eli, not even as a design critic but as a person. This was ugly to see. What happened to civil discussion and giving the other side a chance to say their piece? Calling to &#8220;ban him&#8221; from sites such as DesignerNews or suggesting to unfollow him on Twitter is unbelievably childish - in an industry that we tote as &#8220;accepting of everyone&#8221; no less.</p>
+<p>That&#8217;s all I&#8217;m going to say because I don’t want to spend too much time on this foolishness, but honestly designers - get some thicker skin.</p>
+<p>Yeesh.</p>
