So, if you work for a company, any company, you can't express concern or protest in any way, because having your income depend on things like ad revenue invalidates you to protest against things like a genocide.
Sounds like a healthy mentality /s
- nabla9 2y agoNo. People can and should. Even hypocrites like these people should be able to expresses concern. We should not put much value for their expression of concern, because their standing is shaky. It's like working for tobacco firm and voicing concern about working with oil firms, but staying silent about tobacco.
- _jplc 2y agoIf you're working for a company that does something bad, let's say 50% bad, and now the company participates in something 90% bad, you're an hypocrite for raising concern? People have to balance their morality, their personal goals and their income. It's obvious that a shift in the company morality raises concerns. This pretends that no gray areas exists, and that participating any slightly unethical activity invalidates your opinion about greater problems.

- _jplc 2y agoIf protesting isn't annoying, it's not protesting.
- slowmovintarget 2y agoYou get to protest in public, not on private property. One of those protesting employees was advocating the rape of all Jewish women. Making other employees fear for their safety (also mentioned in the news articles) is not just "annoying."
