    Personally, I find antivaccine views and using one's PhD to hawk useless "brain supplements" to be pretty hateful, but that's just me. 🤦🏻‍♂️https://twitter.com/HerbCaineWriter/status/1425530410071699456 …

    Frankly, the idea that someone's beliefs should disqualify them from a job, unless it is something truly hateful like Nazism, is bizarre to me.

        Yeah, she's had other issues as well, though less directly relevant here. Toxic beliefs don't need to be platformed, and someone with a PR team making small changes to improve their optics likely hasn't changed.

        Anti-vaccine views in the middle of a pandemic that has already killed 4 million people around the world, and 600K in the US alone really should be disqualifying for ANY position in the public view. This much public exposure will be read as endorsing those views as mainstream.

        This is one of the more ignorant replies to you I've ever seen. Incorrect beliefs about verifiable factual matters--or even just controversial beliefs about hotbutton issues--are used to deny employment all the time. It's routine and accepted.

        In the middle of a crisis with anti vaxxers hiring someone for an “intellectual” game show is not an issue? Someone lives in a bubble

        What would you think of LeVar Burton? I think he could grow into it and be a great host.
