From the article: Civis denied the firing happened over the tweet. The only evidence is this:

> One Civis employee, who requested anonymity for fear of professional repercussions, told me, the only reason for the firing “that was communicated that I heard were the client and staff reactions to the tweet.” The employee also said that at “our company-wide meeting after Shor’s firing blew up on Twitter, [CEO] Dan [Wagner] said something along the lines of freedom of speech is important, but he had to take a stand with our staff, clients, and people of color.”

Sure... Solid journalism, given the above.

I am not yet sold on "cancel culture". I only ever hear people crying about people calling them out on Twitter, intermixed with some random people losing their jobs for actually doing really nasty shit on public record. What ever there is, it's blown way out of proportion.

I hope we are heading for a drama recession. And I hope Twitter and Facebook die over it. I wish the idiots lighting 5G towers would shift their anger towards data centers. Any, at this point. I would fund them on patreon.
