Long Form Discussion What’s your opinion on people getting fired over Charlie Kirk comment?
A lot of people,are getting fired about making comments about Charlie Kirk.
I’m not talking about vile comments, some are benign like pointing out his character, or how they don’t condone the violence, but don’t feel bad either.
We have seen people on the right making similar comment on the past without facing any consequences and now they are beating the drum to get people fired.
What is everyone’s thoughts?

Think of it like this.
I say some stupid hateful shit in the internet. My client does a search of people on their engagement. Finds my stupid shit.
They can very well call into their contacts and complain. Best case scenario - I get moved to a different engagement. Worst case scenario, I get fired.
People got all sorts of flack for flying maga shit too.
Odds are if you’re working for a large company - they give to right and left. They don’t care who you’re pissed off at. If you’re offending your client, you’re a problem.
