1. It can be weaponized with or without this happening. I would argue it already has been happening and that is why academia is so slanted to one side of our political spectrum. Tenure, promotions, hiring have all been dependent on the "correct" political speech.
2. We all saw people fired during Covid for their protected speech.
3. I don't think we will see any successful lawsuits due to the firings we have seen so far and the slope isn't a slippery as you think.
1. I agree that it has already been happening. I expect it from the left. I just don't like seeing our side doing the same thing.2. Yes, and it was bad.
- It is not the same thing. Far from it.
3. I hope you are right. But see my sig. I have been consistent on matters like this. I don't like the heavy hand of government when it comes to liberty no matter who is in charge. I am more in the camp of 'let the idiots expose themselves' and let the marketplace of ideas decide, at least when it comes to students. Faculty I might be a bit sterner with. They have a duty to perform and a sense of decorum that should go with the job that these folks clearly violate.
- It horrendous and the Democratic Party leadership will do it again regardless of any current legal actions currently being taken.
Do you think Charlie Kirk would have demanded these people be fired or do you think he would rather challenge their beliefs openly?
- This isn't the heavy hand of government in any way shape or form. The Democratic Party leadership would continue their relentless attack on freedoms regardless of any actions by the Republicans and conservatives.

Get fired, start a GoFundMe. Good luck.
Life comes at you fast when you're stupid.
While I doubt it, hopefully she'll learn a valuable lesson.

Someone should have tripped into that ***** and cover her in her paint.
It got worse...I just received this from a student at @UNCWilmington. This is what the memorial they painted for Charlie looks like now after deranged leftists vandalized it.

This is the marketplace of ideas acting.
These people would not be fired if not for the "market" acting with disgust at the behavior.
This is true. But it wasn't that long ago that the marketplace of ideas thought you should be fired for not using someone's preferred pronouns. And I don't think many in here thought that was a great world to live in.
And I get celebrating murder is on a different level and have no sympathy for those people. Just realize the pendulum will swing back at some point and we will have a harder time claiming the philosophical high ground.

Quick question. When George Soros passes away, if any conservative posts "good riddance," y'all are Ok with them being fired over it?

Fauci does deserve to be tried in a court of law for crimes against humanity and then suffer the appropriate sentence. Terrible analogy.
This is about what people say, which very often doesn't include "after due process and trial by a court of law".
Look, I understand my concern is not going to be a popular one around here. My feelings are the same as everyone else around here about what these people say. But the left is very, very good at taking something righteous that the right does or believes and turning it into a weapon against those same people. My message is cautionary, be careful what you wish for.
Your concern regarding when the Democratic Party leadership gains control is way too late. The Democratic Party leadership and their minions in the DOJ, FBI, NSA, HOMELAND SECURITY, etc. have already abused their power and locked up innocent people.
Corporations that advocated the insidious leftist progressive agenda have already cleared their companies of anyone that openly espoused conservative views.
There were examples posted above yours showing people forgiven for their malicious actions on the internet and retaining their jobs. I would venture a guess that their supervisors are leftist progressive leaning abd will not uphold any ethics/morality employment clauses for their side.

OMG. reading that was painful. Why would anybody hire a self-described neuroqueer leftist? What does that even mean? When did the world change? How could anybody take that seriously? That's embarrassing.

I've said enough on this thread snd I appreciate the rebuttals.
I still stand by my concern. I think these people celebrating this assassination are despicable, I make no excuse for them, I wish they suffer the consequences to the highest degree possible. I just reluctant to continue empowering the government to do it.
Always remember, the left will take every opportunity always to push the boundaries further and your nuancing the differences in circumstances is meaningless to them.

So if a conservative thinks that a liberal should be killed for their views, they should be fired from their government job?

This right here is everything wrong with Progressive America in one sentence.

That's over the top, and wrong.
If your boss makes a sexual pass at you and you deflect him/her, its ok to fire the victim of harassment?
That is obviously illegal. Just pointing out that hyperboles often do not hold.

If the owner of the company does that you can sue him for monetary damages for the sexual harassment but he should absolutely be able to fire her and not force them to continue to work together. Obviously the owner is not going anywhere.
You should be able to fire someone for any reason.
