| >Yeah, it's suspect when people complain about getting judged for their views, then fail to state what the views are. Not at all. Definitely not in the era of "cancel culture". >It often turns out that the views in question are something that people have good reason to disapprove of - racism, homophobia, transphobia, etc. It rarely turns out that the views in question are something that people have good reason to disapprove of - racism, homophobia, transphobia, etc. A few examples from past and current companies I've worked at: 1. Titling an apolitical presentation "Make Front-ends Great Again" caused several leftist activist employees to explode on Slack about fascist White supremacy culture. 2. "Believing" (this is an objective fact) that trans-women are biological male humans is hate speech and a firable offence. 3. Expressing the opinion that the company openly donating to shady BLM foundations[0], or any political group for that matter is not a good idea was shouted down as supporting the fascist, racist, White supremacist status quo. The list goes on. These basic examples are more than enough to get a target on your back, and possibly fired. [0] https://news.yahoo.com/black-lives-matter-suspends-online-18... |
