Lol so let me get this straight, Bari Weiss never actually got fired, she is in fact quitting because she's mad that all the people at the Times who don't like her *didn't* get fired But they'll still turn this into some kind of crusade to protect people from firing

She didn’t actually call for anyone to get fired.

Yes, the "appropriate action" she was seeking was actually for her critics to be given icecream.pic.twitter.com/fntEcUXhNN

Why do you all purposely leave out context when clipping quotes? And “appropriate action” does not necessarily mean firing, but if people are harassing you and defaming you at work then their supervisors should be doing something to stop it.pic.twitter.com/AtwdAAhe2w

Having an opinion you disagree with isn't harassment or defamation. And the only power an employer ultimately has over employees is the ability to stop employing them.

If you are putting on social media that your coworker is a liar and a bigot, instead of keeping any grievance internal to the company, then you are the one in the wrong.

Criticizing someone's public statements, publicly, isn't wrong just because you happen to work with them. "The free exchange of information and ideas, the lifeblood of a liberal society, is daily becoming more constricted."
