ITT: Every shitty boss you ever had that would prefer you sever yourself from your thoughts, emotions, and personhood all for the sake of capitalism. The same folk who preach about the meritocracy but fall in line and flip their shit every time a trust fund baby in a suit visits.

    Work, the place you go to serve the coperate overlords, isn’t political? If the corporations don’t care about politics why is it so important to protect their speech in the form of money?

      You can discuss politics, but the way you’re writing makes it sound like you’re preaching at your coworkers. People tend not to respond very well to being told how to think, even if you’re right. Perhaps you’re wasting your energy and risking your job when you could be organizing a club after work hours instead? If you really hate your bosses though, you have two choices: quit or organize a union (which might be right up your alley from how you’re talking)

        I’m just asking for a culture change. We’ve let the racist make everything so toxic that having reasonable political positions isn’t possible anymore. Now things are hot and they want us all to hold the coals while keeping quiet. Just so I don’t offend racist bob over there.

      This whole manner of engaging in a discussion is just really annoying and most people probably won’t find it worth their time to engage with you, let alone people who just want to do their jobs. Maybe spend some time learning about how to engage with people productively or you’ll be in for a bad time whenever you step outside your echo chamber.
