I'm sure some of the "free speech" advocates here will love this.
I mostly work remotely, I don't want to give too much detail, but I have to go to the office maybe once or twice a week. The guy who owns the company, and it's a fairly large operation, is openly Republican and crooked. Like he made political donations to keep state investigating away. So on one of my office visits, somebody I know asked me about Charlie Kirk and my opinion. I told them the truth, which is I'd never watched or listened to him much and was fairly indifferent to his death. I said that lots of people get killed by gun violence so I don't know why this is such a big deal.
Took a while, but that made it to one of the higher ups. Had to get on a zoom meeting about it today, and I told them that when it comes to these things, I don't ask people about it, because it's none of my business and I don't really care. Kind of got the stink eye over it, but I didn't say or do anything out of line. They just wanted to "make sure" I'm not creating a hostile work environment, even though I barely see anyone in person.
Even if I had said more I doubt they'd do anything. This was just for show more than anything.
