Name the names so real Americans know where to not spend their money.
I’m a small business owner (x2).
I’d terminate an employee who posted inflammatory content, whether that be celebrating the death of George Floyd or celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk.
Why?
1. Bc I don’t want to work with a**holes.
2. Bc it shows terrible judgment.
3. Bc it might damage my livelihood.
Would you behave differently if you owned a business?
Would you fire someone for printing Kirks own words, direct quotes, with nothing else?

What about Jeffery Epstein?
Somewhat different story if someone’s been convicted of a heinous crime, but in general it’s not a good idea to publicly celebrate the death of someone.
Who gets to be the arbiter of when it's okay and when it's not.

So if Trump or Don Jr said what they in fact said about Paul Pelosi or others, you’d fire them?

Political views? Is misogyny a political view? Is being OK with rape a political view?

I hope every single one of them sues their employer and gets a lot of money out of it.
Sue them for what?
Wrongful termination. I would personally sue for a violation of my religious beliefs, because as a good Christian I cannot deviate from my belief that we should call out the lies of a false
Prophet.
Good luck with that. Assuming that you’re not employed by a government entity, you’ll spend a lot of $$$ and you’ll likely lose.
You can’t discriminate against me based on my religion. I’d surely being it up in the meeting with HR.

Anonymous wrote:Honestly, it just seems to me people shouldn't be fired for comments they made in the immediate aftermath of the event unless it was something extremely egregious and explicitly calling for more of the same. Emotions run high, and people on the right were immediately accusing everyone not in their camp of somehow being behind and part of the assassination.
Plus, TPUSA itself is geared and highly organized to monitor the speech of the opposition (as in the professor watchlist). There's nothing like that on the left that I can think of. Typically, when people get fired for, say, racist remarks or behavior, it seems to happen because someone posted it online and it spread from there. The very existence of a very well organized apparatus on the right to monitor and denounce the speech of others is certainly an intimidating factor, especially when it also has a direct line to an administration that is willing to steamroll any and all constitutional protections in its crusade to stamp out "leftist" ideology using its institutions.

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