Would you deny a person's talent because you dislike him/her personally?

[Guo Xiang]

Depends on the context. For example, if I am the boss and I know my employee is very competent in his duty but is also a selfish douche, will I give him the promotion next month? No. Because people are sentinel beings, which means we can't totally cut off from our emotions. How will people that work under him feel?

Then that's not personal, because you are keeping the team/company in consideration.

I believe people should be matured enough to differentiate between recognising a person's talent and personality.

Of course, if the person has a poor personality or poor attitude towards you, it definitely is harder to publicly praise that person.

However, talent would remain raw without a positive or powerful personality and attitude. Therefore, I feel that personality is a crucial factor for talent to develop well and flourish.

Agree.
Even though I am not a fan, but I do acknowledge that Michael Jackson was a great singer and performer. However, I hate him for what he did to the young boys though.

General bullsh!t female b!tchiness: degrading another female on her physical appearance and social status, thus claiming moral high ground - all checked.

wow, Candide. You are so harsh on her.

Deny is the wrong word. Not appreciate is a better way of putting it.

The truth is sometimes harsh, ne?
