[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Terrorism OP?  Really?

If people simply oppose what Kirk has said that is one thing. People should not be arrested for their speech. That is not what is happening.

People are being fired because their vile comments reflect poorly on their employer. It shows a severe lack of judgment and empathy. Especially those in positions of public trust like teachers, professors, nurses and doctors. When you are outright celebrating murder something is wrong with you. [/quote]

So who gets to define what a “vile comment” is?  I guess you know it when you hear it — which means that “vile comments” that management is fine with are allowed — while supposed “vile comments” that a particular representative of any given management disagrees with become termination-worthy offenses.  It’s not like we have commonly understood and accepted standards of “vileness”.

Trump and MAGA are decimating museum collections that have been revered by many — because they don’t meet their own white supremacist MAGA standards.

As to your point about “empathy” PP, I won’t quote it — since many might regard it as “vile” — but check out Charlie Kirk’s own comments on “empathy”.

DP.

I think we largely DO have commonly understood and accepted standards of vileness.

It’s just that people have forgotten that they apply to speech on social media.[/quote]

Is quoting CK considered "vile" or "celebrating"?

[/quote]

PP. No, but in poor taste and inadvisable imo. Would not fire someone for that, but would probably have a chat if it were brought to my attention.[/quote]

If you did fire someone for their opinions on the type of person he was plan to be sued. I think that is basic. Look at all the MAGAs spewing pure hatred about Biden the last four years and they kept their jobs.[/quote]

Private business can absolutely fire someone for their public statements or for almost any reason at all.

If one of my employees posts “Heil Hitler”, do you seriously think I’m at risk of losing a lawsuit?[/quote]

So if your employee said he didn't like trump and you were a MAGA....you think thats grounds to fire someone? [/quote]
