>There are absolutely things that people can write which they should be removed from their job for though, and where it is appropriate to campaign for this as a response.

It's really good to see you say the quiet part out loud, and I do hope some people start to become more aware of the friend-enemy distinction.

That's why when people who have the same stance as you get fired, specially when they have a history of trying to get other people get fired for something they said, always warms my heart.

I am quite confused by your phrasing. What "quiet part"? This has never been a quiet part. There has always been a self-consistent view of the world in which employers have been asked to respond for perceived immoral behavior among their employees, even if that behavior has little to do with their job. Nothing here is new. You can argue whether that world view is itself moral, but it is silly to claim it is not a fairly standard or common world view that plenty of people consider "obvious and correct".

On the other hand, it is certainly worthwhile to discuss what actually deserves such heavy-handed treatment, but that needs to be an honest and polite and patient conversation.

Who said anything about a friend-enemy distinction?

I'm talking about when someone writes things which reveal that they hold values or beliefs which make them unsuitable for a role they hold.
