Sounds pretty reasonable to me. If you don't like it that our company allows freely talking about anything, you can leave to find a coddling safe space you are seeking.

>Kraken laid out a vision of its corporate culture that includes prohibiting employees from calling speech “racist,”

There goes "freely talking about anything".

It seems that racists at Kraken needed a safe space... Kinda cute! Maybe if they don't like their speech being labelled "racist" they could work somewhere else?

Not saying this with regard to this situation specifically, but personally I'd be fine with banning one word criticisms. They tend to be imprecisely used, which is a major problem when talking about hot button issues. Most arguments are a matter of degree as opposed to absolute, so precision is the point of the conversation.
