"different desktops for the users who just want to get some work done, such as LXDE and Xfce."
Yeah, that is pretty offensive. I get plenty of work on on G3 and I am certain others do on KDE4, Unity, etc.

Agreed.
I have no problems using Gnome 3 and Shell.

What you don't realise, is that what the top-level poster said is not offensive and should not be offensive. He just mentions the existence of a class of users, who see no benefit in the features Gnome 3 bring, and experience the losses that it incurs. AFAICT, he didn't imply, or mean to imply, to discredit people who see Gnome 3 a beneficial.
So, no, it's the customary-workflow-disrupting GNOME3 that is offensive, the sheerness of its "my way, or the highway" approach.

First you say that "want to get work done" is not offensive (don't think it is, just trollish) and should not be offensive, then you call GNOME 3 offensive?
That logic does not make sense. Further, you know you're posting in an XFCE article right? Enough choice.

Technically the GP could only be offensive to Gnome 3 if "my way, or the highway" actually describes Gnome 3. :)

Offensive? No, it's not. You needn't take criticism of your chosen desktop environment so personally. It's not personal. It's a desktop. A computer program.
