Saying “I do not like white supremacists and they are bad people” is enough to get people fired as of late

I had heard from some family about their coworkers getting fired for that sentiment. I don’t know the exact phrasing of their posts.

Yeah, apparently HR has some issues with "I would slice a Nazis head off for free, don't even ask me what I'd pay to do it."

No, not only in the media.

People not in the media are getting fired for this. A art director who worked at Sony got fired for saying that he hopes the Charlie Kirk shooter was named Mario.

That's very different, making fun of the dead is way less socially acceptable than calling white supremacists bad people

In this case I think that's pretty funny, but that's still a spicy joke

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

that's not even making fun of the dead, though

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 1 points 10 months ago

It's making light of murder in broad daylight, possibly also implying that Kirk deserved it

Which, no matter how you slice it, is way too spicy for professional settings. Most people were scared by both events, not because they know of or care about the victims, but because the media talks about it in a scary voice
