I’ve started seeing various stories of people in the media speaking out in support of Palestine and being swiftly fired. I’m very curious if the current state of propaganda is going to increase the chance of people working in non-public facing jobs of also being fired and branded anti-Semitic. I’m scared of this coming up in the workplace because I don’t think I’d be able to keep my mouth shut and I could absolutely see certain people starting shit.
i wouldnt be surprised if this is happening. Personally I’m going to keep my mouth shut in places where i’m not anonymous because losing my job right now would be pretty bad.
People have short emotional memory with this stuff. This is how it was with Ukraine in 2022 you were the most toxic person in the room if you said anything bad about Ukraine. Now something like(give or take?) 46 percent of democrats oppose sending weapons to Ukraine.
We’re in an extreme flashpoint; wait for the war to normalize in people’s heads and use this time to monitor the situation; read up on history and have your takes ready for the future. People are going to be freaking out for awhile now in a flashpoint like this.
