Ok, so if I find out I work for Nazi contractor and object to that, it is politics?
Discussing politics at the work place has been an HR violation for some time, but speaking against the company policy or its customers has always been a fireable ofense. I’m not sure why this surprises anyone.
Sure, google is an evil corporation and there’s lots of reasons to hate them, but why are we focusing on this specific thing which is common across all workplaces?
And yes, if you find out your employer is constructing concentration camps and you openly speak against that, you’re probably going to lose your job. Why is this even a question?
It's just a Tuesday in the Capitalist Hellscape © of U.S.A.™
Lol you're getting tossed in jail doing this in a communist society...this isn't about capitalism at all. It's about keeping people from creating a hostile work environment, look how polarized politics is online, shit gets heated in a work setting? It's a no go for any sane company wanting to keep the peace between employees.
Just because communism also sucks does not mean that capitalism has not ruined our lives.
No one said it hasn't helped it some, but until you have magical replicators like in star trek, people will still be people. You cannot stop human nature to want more.
Seems to me that the problem is bankers. Not the average Joe
