"Would I feel the same way if he was fired for standing during the anthem?"

if you don't say "yes", reevaluate your stance, because the answer should be "yes".


Why would it be yes unless we're completely ignoring context? Standing during the anthem is what "everyone" does, so following the group's actions and not rocking the boat isn't usually what gets people fired. "Othering" yourself by going against the group's actions is what can lead to termination.


but you're asserting that the company has the right to fire individuals for doing something the company doens't like. if the company had a very different political viewpoint and insisted people sat during the anthem and fired those who disobeyed, it should be treated the same.
