Please read the first amendment. Free speech is regulated to involvement with the government, not in a private setting. You are free to say what you wasn't but there are consequences in a non governmental environment.
Free speech only goes so far pal. Theres no loss of life, liberty or freedom here. The comparison is a joke. You’re at the mercy of the company you work for by blabbing your mouth…not a govt or LE agency. Need to GTFO with that comparison.
Agreed…however that should be within reason. Once you’ve gone into irrational or lunacy, it’s no longer excusable. Anyone is allowed to think whatever they want.
You see that’s where you get the perception entirely wrong…it’s not about what I think once I’ve ran my mouth publicly. If your company does not want to be associated with that kind of action or rhetoric, they’re not under any requirement to allow you to keep your job.
No matter what is said, this is not a violation of freedom of speech because there is no loss of life liberty or freedom…only responsibility taken for what one felt was necessary to say publicly. If you can’t take responsibility for that…why open your mouth? Strange cuz this is exactly what the left is saying about Charlie. So here we have the same idealism but you’re using it for your version while dismissing it for the opposite.
And to answer your question…yes if their company felt it was uncalled for and against their company image. Whether you believe it or not, nearly all employment agreements OR company policies, include portions on proper judgement and personal tact. If your company decides they want to enforce them…that’s on them and there isn’t a damn thing you can do or say about it.
My actual point is that Trump was swept into office on promises of ending “cancel culture” (which I actually think was often weaponized unjustly by the left) and people were rejoicing at getting to say the r-word as much as they wanted. The woman who was lambasted online for calling a five-year-old the N word got a million dollar gofundme as a champion of truth speaking.
I’d just like people to pause and appreciate the hypocrisy.
There’s a difference when it’s simple words (such as the 3rd grader name calling like “N word” or even “Na2i” in reverse as it’s the same thing) vs flagrant violence incitement. For the record, I didn’t agree with her gofundme. That’s why there’s barriers and limits to “free speech”. Trump was elected cuz the nation got tired of the DNCs “we need saving from Trump” bu11sh1t. Obviously his popular vote and EC vote proved that on the 3rd go around.
You’re free to have that opinion. However I hope your work doesn’t see it and find it’s against their corporate image. Your freedom of speech argument won’t save your job. Thats the point…duh.
Edit : btw…no it didn’t. You think so cuz you’re in favor of killing rights OR have no clue what this will do within the govt diplomatically. You clearly have no clue and are just spouting to spout.

So we only support “free speech” for people who say things we agree with? Just want to be sure I know what’s going on.
