> Don’t trash your employer, nor respond if they do. If they start that, say “I’m sorry, I can imagine why you’d feel that way, but I can’t continue this conversation.”

This is so bizarre. I would show a huge lack of empathy as well.

Yeah why even send them a message if you're not interested in actually talking? What do they get out of it? What do you get out of it?

You might have been interested in continuing the conversation if the other person didn't descend into trash-talking first. I think that's the message the author is trying to convey.

But I agree with you that "I can't continue this conversation" is probably not the best way to respond, even in that case.
