Wrong to punish speech, but people have a duty to follow through with their commitments. An employer has to act in interest of company 1st.

I don't think we should normalise idea an employer gets to say what views employees can have in own time. The opposite.

Moral knowledge is an iterative process where we loop through problems over and over, increasing our resolution to see the best answers.

B/c of this, we need what you're saying (speech w/o conseq culture), but we also need room for mistakes and failures.

I don't know what you mean in this context. There will always be mistakes & failures.

I think format is difficult. I also think ignoring practical issues in an ethical convo abt work, speech and culture is impossible (for me).

Maybe try thought experiment. Imagine no practical consequences. Shld he be fired on purely ethical punitive grounds?
