>Freedom of Speech != Freedom of Consequence Ah yes, Godwin's law for the 2020's. So we can fire people for spouting commie propaganda (ie promoting unions) now?

What does that have to do with employment status? Does the Dutch Commercial Law state that the employees should only work on firm-appointed hours? The hours worked are already logged, the only new responsibilities fall on Uber except for fi

So we're making it clearer and clearer that US is ruled by corporations rather than elected officials. I just hope they keep the same momentum the next time someone rallies for intervention in Middle East

Yeah, if your soldiers are mindless drones who would risk their lives to kill their citizens without blinking. Just look at what actually happens: protests with open carries don't even get forcibly dismantled, but are carefully negotia
