You've just described spam. Mass unsolicited messaging.

Either that's enough engagement so that's what they should have done instead of spam thousands of accounts or it's not enough engagement and they have no reason to spam thousands of accounts. You can't just decide to start spamming because you want more users in your new community.

That makes no sense. The decision to close this community was made in a pinned post. If that's not enough engagement the community shouldn't have been closed.

For many people, yes, there is no other choice. Was that meant to be a joke?

And it's differentiated from IC meaning Independent Contractor by...?

No, corporate jargon is stupid and saying it's acceptable because a big corp uses corporate jargon is even stupider.

IC is a common term for integrated circuits and a hundred other things.

Maybe it's used for workers in your specific region/field but that's not definitely universal and it's not even a useful or descriptive term. Managers are also individuals who ostensibly contribute something to the company. The distinction between managers and workers is that the workers are the people doing the actual work, not that they're individuals.

Sounds like corporate jargon. Why not just say worker, a term everyone understands?

I'm a short man (5'6")

Worldwide average height for men is around 5'7", you're average. I'm guessing you just live in a region that skews taller.

Not sure what that has to do with anything? The article says there's spaces for blue badge holders, that's the UK's scheme for parking spaces for people with mobility issues.

Still a nazi. You can say you hate tall people and want them all to be shot, that won't stop you being tall. Same thing.

It's called nazism. People who defend nazis are almost certainly nazis themselves. People who claim the nazi salute was used by Romans are wrong or lying, and also probably nazis; the earliest known record of the salute in a Roman context was created a millennium after the end of the Roman empire.

Edit: It's probably worth noting that Hitler was likely a fan of the Roman empire. Nazi Germany was known as the "third reich" where the first was the the Holy Roman Empire and the second was the German Empire. It's likely they appropriated the gesture thinking it was a legitimate Roman salute.
