Dude is my hero and is getting rewarded with money and it warms my heart.
Remember how many times Obama was mocked, did they fire anyone? No.
Geico fired R. Lee Ermey because he gave a speech claiming Obama was bankrupting the country on purpose so he could bring socialism to the US. Just saying.
I truly don't understand that line of reasoning. At all.
Putting aside ideological stances on economic and social structures, how does someone reason that the country being broke makes socialism more achievable?
While I agree with the sentiment, there's always 1 person who says something really racist or something and does get into trouble, but usually gets a bunch of right wing support too.
Edit: Google search mentions several, including Ferguson police officer being extremely racist, a teacher also being racist calling Michelle a gorilla, a NY police officer got a mere 60 days for a slur and suggesting the president "go die in a shallow grave."
The overall point stands that they did way worse than someone calling out the truth, but right wing defenders will definitely say it happened with Obama too.
I could just imagine some rando touring the White House, and they stumble across him. They start out so excited. Go in saying:
Oh wow! Look at that! It's the president! It's great to me you, President Pedophile. Oh. My mix up. I mean, President Insurrectionist. Oh fuck, slip of the tounge! I'm just so nervous. Ha-ha! President Trump! It's a pleasure to meet the Rapist-in-Chief. Oh fuck. There I go again.
Every single Ford employee needs to call Trump a pedophile protector now. They can't fire everyone.
You... Don't know Ford, do you?
Read up on Ford in Detroit. They will absolutely ruin lives. 💯
Yeah, FoMoCo is shit, and Henry Ford was a racist shithead, but it's not about supporting Ford. It's about resisting the regime.
We'll deal with Ford once we've reclaimed our democracy.
Racist is putting it lightly... he was a Nazi. He owned a newspaper pumping out Nazi literature and was admired by the leaders of the Nazi party.
He even has his own entry in the Holocaust Encyclopedia. https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/antisemitism-and-henry-fords-international-jew
If you fire someone for mocking the prez, you're the asshole.
You know how you can identify weak childlike leaders?
This. This is a sign of a petty weak person.
Wait? Suspended? Why?
What did he do that was wrong?
Ford is complying with dear leader while dear leader is actively fucking Ford by cutting trade with Canada.
I used to work in automotive manufacturing. The amount of parts to build cars cannot come from just America. It's impossible.
Trump is beating the shit out of Ford and they're just standing there asking for more.
While at work you are representing the company and have to act accordingly. Aside from any personal feelings about what he said, what he did is really unprofessional and could cause reputational damage to the company.
I agree with what he said but yelling that at work during a visit is just not a great idea.
That dude was representing his union not Ford Motor Company.
Just because some company says "you are representing FORD" ... the CEO of Ford doesn't drive a Ford ... is he get a pass because he is rich ?
You don't represent a company. You represent yourself.
I thought the whole issue was that he was at work, during work time?
And Trump isn't at work? What are these double standards?
Who is going to fire Trump for his actions?
Trump is literally a pedo protector. We all have eyes.
Ford are fash sympathizers, who could've guessed
Ah he's only suspended and a union member. I heard that the suspension will likely be short (3 days was the figure someone in the same union said on the other site). I'm sure we'll hear all about it if he is actually fired.
Mad props to him for seeing his opportunity, realising it was once in a lifetime and grabbing it with both hands.
Top 10 reasons to be in a union:can yell at donald without getting sacked
Henry Ford was an open Nazi to the point the Feds removed him from the business during WW2.
He wasnt just a fuckin open Nazi, Hitler practically wrote him a goddamn Love Letter in Mein Kampf.
Ford also financially supported the Nazi Party in its early days
Also received the highest medal and honors that could be bestowed to a foreigner, from Nazi Germany.
Then, in 1942, when such things started reflecting badly on him, he suddenly went "oh no no no, Thats not me, I hope this whole business ends with world peace and love amongst everyone"
He is a national fuckin disgrace.
Champ.
Apparently he's already net 300k via contributions from other patriots.
Fuck I hate this timeline where we throw money at people for being on one team or the other. I mean, good for him and all, but this is BS.
Trump is not just a protector he is a Pedophile.
He's a pedophile who protects pedophiles
He’s like that Hair club for Men guy, not just the President but also a client
Dude needs to open a gofundme for that one. I'd give him ten bucks for the delivery of what many of us think.
Joined you
there actually is one https://www.gofundme.com/f/tj-sabula-is-a-patriot
There are two
https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-ford-worker-tj-sabula-during-suspension
Together solid 440 k as of writing.
Holy shit dude made 220k from this. Good on him for not being afraid to speak up.
Someone anonymously dropped $5,000 as a donation. It's always nice to see that some people are using their much-higher-than-average disposable income for the good of others.
What's the point of having Fuck You money if you never say "fuck you"‽
Canceled for calling out a pedophile.
If only I could boycott Ford more than I already am.
You have the right to protest, good for him
Do you have right to protect during work, while at work and does that right safeguard you from any repercussions (suspension, firing) from your employer? Certain labour action stuff is protected in Finland but no idea about the US.
It varies depending on the company. I can at my current job but I’m sure at most big to major corporations, likely not.
Does that come from some agreement with the company or the law?
Could you imagine if Obama had done this than got the guy suspended from his job?
It's funny this keeps getting brought up. We already know they're hypocritical racists who only care about team red and themselves. Hurting others is the point. It doesn't matter who the opposition is.
Say what you want about Trump, but at least he never brought shame on our country by wearing a tan suit.
What is his position on dijon mustard
Too spicy.
