    When people say we should separate the artist from the art, I think of Jay Johnston. I do not want to support a fascist by purchasing art or entertainment they have created.

    Employers should proactively inquire about one’s political leanings before hiring someone. Fascism, bigotry, racism, or other conservative ideologies should be disqualifying factors in employment. Period.

    There is simply no room in a modern culture for hate-based ideologies like conservatism.

      You surely see why this would be terrible, right?

        No, he’s clearly a moron.

        It’s the big problem with both extremes, the right is obviously evil but the extreme left say stupid shit like that, call for burning people and extreme acts of violence or discrimination that they deem okay because it’s on the ‘enemy’.

        The left has gone kinda right.

          The above commenter called for employers to discriminate against applicants on the basis of their political views. I simply pointed out that’s a bad idea and you went off about “both extremes” and how the left has gone too far.

          I’m so sick of this shit. Yes, the j6er is a moron, but removing worker protections against political discrimination is also a moronic response to this issue. Who here is being “extreme”?
