Lot of people interested in pointing out the facts seem equally as comfortable making things up.

Coming from the person insinuating the person was suspended for their Twitter post, this is laughably hypocritical.

Tbh there's no reason to believe this meeting had anything to do with Chappelle's special. So it kinda seems like they were just trying to barge into a meeting, which would get you into trouble pretty much anywhere. Not saying I disagree with what they did but it makes sense that they were suspended.

Also I think this whole thing is blown out of proportion. Chappelle didn't "attack" the trans community in his special and I think painting it that way does way more harm then good.

Ah yes, you posted the topic title the way you did because you read the full article. Youre only attacking people that are, agreeably I might add, guessing that the person did it in a malicious way while also not yelling at everyone who did the same thing you did and read the theyre suspended after the tweet so it must be because of that!

Really makes someone wonder. But knowing you, it makes me not wonder, because thats your gimmick.

tl;dr - stop playing stupid and being a hypocrite

I'll have you all know that a certain facet of CE has in fact always been very supportive of meeting attendance regulation. It's a very hot topic.

Sure seems like he's trying to imply something without actually having the conviction to say it clearly.

Just what exactly do you mean by these implications, CyricZ? What are you actually trying to say, here?

It wasn't the tweet, but more,

Netflix then suspended Field along with two other employees for trying to attend a director-level meeting they werent invited to.

I've dealt with high level employers, and they're shit serious depending on who you cross. They're lucky they didn't get fired.

Disney kept the Endgame script behind a locked and guarded vault where people could only see it a few people at a time.

So Netflix higher up meetings being a big deal isn't surprising

But gotta make those mountains outta molehills

This genuinely reads like they were suspended for a legitimate reason which is being passed off in the spinosphere as another reason.

Like, do you guys just ever try and gatecrash your company board meetings? Not a thing.

If it was just about a tweet, they should not be fired/suspended. What you do/say outside work is not under your employer's control.

But if they are doing stuff against the rules at their job, that is different.

if something you said or did as an employee of whatever company negatively affected the image of that company to the point their money is threatened, that is reason enough to let them go unless you stand with them.

most successful business don't want open bigots attracting bad press, even if they all secretly feel similar. screw that bigot's feelings and everybody who can see themselves in their shoes.

that's what.

I'm confused who you are attacking/defending in this.

I was defending the employee's right to speak freely outside work.

Were you calling them a bigot?

nobody is taking an employee's Right to speak freely. anywhere. I'm saying you aren't entitled to employment.

You aren't entitled to your employment, but I think you are entitled to not be fired for things outside your employment.

If you are an effective employee, what you do outside work is not your employer's business. We aren't' indentured servants to our employer, we are free people.

You aren't saying or doing those things as an employee, you are saying and doing those things as a free person not on the clock.

When I'm not working, I'm not an employee. The company has no claim to me or my individuality outside of work. Same goes for everybody.

I defend people's free speech, and what do you know in this topic I'm also defending the person's free speech, despite them being on the completely different side of the political spectrum.

It's almost like I have principles or something.
