It’s always the rank-and-file who get fired if (somehow) their viewpoints are made public and it’s embarrassing. whereas anyone in power get a free pass because they built up a network of influence.
When it was taboo to be gay, why did Alan Turing get screwed, while nobles like Vita Sackville West did not?
More recently, Christian Cooper did not and does not want Amy Cooper (the infamous Central Park Karen) fired for what she did, because who wants a racist as their employee? Don’t you wonder why Christian Cooper didn’t want that, even though by all rights he should have felt differently?
As for where I draw the line: If it’s legal and it doesn’t affect business/work, then it’s something to tolerate.
If the person becomes disruptive, or can’t separate their personal views from working well with their colleagues then it’s time to part ways.
But then again, I trust people to fight the good fight so that things work out for the best and conclusively.
Finally, I definitely don’t appreciate you making assumptions about my views just because I find what happened worrisome. Your insinuations are a very short step from an irrational witch hunt and exactly why I find what happened worrisome.
