Teachers, firefighters and military personnel among those who lost jobs after posting their opinion on social media
Reactions on social media to the murder of far-right activist Charlie Kirk have cost multiple people their jobs as authorities in numerous states clamp down on critical commentary.
Among those to have been fired, suspended or censured in recent days for their opinions include teachers, firefighters, journalists, politicians, a secret service employee and a worker for a prominent NFL team.
The dismissals come as the administration of Donald Trump promises to take action against foreign nationals it deems to be “praising, rationalizing or making light of” Kirk’s killing, himself a fervent free speech advocate.
Yeah, that’s what pisses me off so much. I get that the Nazis are butthurt that people are mocking this, but how is it that people are not being fired for publicly praising a fucking Nazi?
Instead, orgs and corps are firing those making fun of the dead Nazi?
What. The. Actual. Fuck.
