  I dunno, maybe you just should not talk about your personal political views on your work email?

  You know, like any normal well adjusted person.

    Being against genocide is not political.

    A normal well adjusted person wouldn’t work for a genocide enabling company in first place.

    There is an argument for that to an extent.

    Microsoft’s support of Israel’s genocide is an exception and has been a long time for anyone with a modicum of ethics.

      I think anyone with half a brain would realize that disrupting a company event and calling your boss a “genocide profiteer” will definitely get you fired. Which, I assume, was the point of their protest. But you can’t talk about politics at work and act surprised when there are consequences
