We leftists have learned to shut the fuck up during work for a LONG time. If you really can't resist talking about how much you hate trans people or immigrants, that's a skill issue.

You're not a real leftist until you've been fired for trying to unionize

it's like the laws against discrimination, where they're written so that you have to be the biggest dumbass going around announcing you're firing somebody / refusing service to somebody because of their protected class

you have to be such an unaware and colossal asshole to actually get punished for it, like just shut the fuck up, but it still happens all the time

the fascists just can't understand that their awful thoughts aren't the same ones everybody else has

As a leftist I guess I might have the most ridiculous getting fired story for politics.

We had a social uprising some years ago, and had a coup attempt some fewer years ago. After that attempt they tried to get rid of some people to "calm things down".

They were trying to get rid of me because of my "left leanings" and this was the perfect smoke screen. First they accused me of being a coup sympathizer, that didn't stick. Then they said I was a proponent of that social uprising (which was true) but they couldn't find any proof. So they went with the second best thing, which is:

A photograph of my wife, when she was a student (at that time, we didn't even know each other), drinking sourcherry juice out of a wine glass (which they thought was wine).

You might be saying "how the fuck is that even remotely related to anything?", to which I say "you are 100% right" but I guess drinking wine means being leftist and consequently possible social upriser (is that a word?).

What??? Why even bother coming up with a justification at that point? You'd think that would sound weirder to people then just firing you for being a leftist.

Thats so many levels of fucked up that it just loops around to being hilarious

And also fucked up of course

For millenia billions of people who had no capital besides their body knew how to behave in the societies that keep them in the dirt yet alive, otherwise they would suffer ostracization; but Mr Snowflake Kyle here demands a special treatment
