      It's obvious that today, culturally, managers are both more empowered and more expected to regulate the non work-related conduct of employees than ever before. What do you feel is at stake on this question that leads you to deny it so stridently?

      1) Buzzfeed doesn't have to approve of a boss firing someone for them to have the power to do it, and for this to be incredibly common For most of history it's been taboo to fire an employee for not sleeping with you; in the 70s it was made explicitly illegal; still very common

      2) Even if you did need to be "culturally empowered" in order to fire someone, that's always existed too Jfc what fucking universe do you people live in Morals clauses in actors' contracts weren't forced by tyrannical CEOs down the public's throat

      This discourse pisses me off so much because getting fired because people don't like you is a universal, constant, inescapable feature of having a job of any kind under capitalism But NOW it's suddenly a PROBLEM because it's "woke"

      Were anti-racists in the 60s (MLK, SNCC, BPP) engaging corporations similar to today's blue wave 'anti-racists'? When MLK turned to economics and liberal racism, should he instead have asked how employment contract language could be a post-Jim-Crow weapon?

      uhh exactly? I question whether you understand where I'm coming from. The mix of forces that got Gina Carano fired have nothing to do with aiding those who suffer systemic racism the most (poor POC). You'd need to march in the streets for that, not cheer evolving HR policies

      The HR policy didn't at any point "evolve", the HR policy that says she can be fired is standard boilerplate What you're complaining about is the simple fact that being racist on Twitter is less socially acceptable than it used to be

      No one was *empowered* by this The same power they have to fire her for being racist they could've used a generation ago to fire her for not being ladylike enough It still gets used to fire people like Colin Kaepernick for being too anti-racist

          But you perceive it as bosses becoming more powerful because you perceive all the other firings as natural and normal - indeed, they're invisible to you, you seem to believe a workers' paradise where "people didn't get fired for non-work stuff" ever existed

          And you refuse to look in the mirror and ask yourself why you think such an obviously stupid thing

          Yes. Unladylike is one of a few things you can't be fired for (since Price-Waterhouse v. Hopkins). Employers who don't document their malfeasance can still fire those *individuals* for "no reason" without fear (absent larger pattern). Even retaliation is unreasonably hard to win
