Hey look, a slippery slope argument combined with the false dilemma fallacy!

Salve, there really are more possibilities in the world besides either:

1) Being complete, irredeemable, raging jerks to volunteers
2) Remaking the world of Perl into Hello Kitty Island Adventure: Riding Camp: 
Their Senior Year

You're a smart guy.  I'm sure you can see that there's nuance between those 
two positions, and I'm sure that once you do, you'll see that absolutely no 
one has seriously argued for #2.
