Would you attend a technical talk titled, "Why writing Scala is unethical", followed up by a technical workshop (with exercises) titled, "In case you are still unsure that writing Scala is unethical"?

Part of being positive is people tend to switch off pretty quick if you put them on the defensive, and people tend to be defensive if they think their being attacked.
This is a massive over-simplification. I am on the defensive about the existence of Scala and the destruction that results. It is now perfectly reasonable to believe my person is being attacked?

Yes. But that doesn't mean that "more positive" is going to help this in any way at all. In fact, I have strong evidence that wishful thinking, or "pretend positivity", continues to encourage it.
