You can't mock everyone's intelligence in this thread and then pretend to be stupidly obtuse.
He's asking you to educate us poor, dumb rocket scientists by telling us what she said and how we're wrong.
Thank you, B.
It takes two seconds to look up what she said. Me not posting it here doesn't mean I don't know what she said. But when you say dumb shit like she offended holocaust survivors or that one deserves to get fired for tweeting about the holocaust, it sounds like you have no idea what she said. I promise you that the idea that tweeting holocaust comparisons should get you fired never crossed your mind before yesterday when it was implanted in your brain.
It wouldn't cross my mind, but I don't currently have 2 strikes against my twitter habits. She did.

Philosophically speaking, I think the human need to share every fucking thought one has on the internet is way more damning for our culture than a corporations' right to protect it's publicly-traded stock price by whatever legal means are available.

I'd like to change my answer. I think posting, "The fucking Jews were treated better by the Nazis than I am at my shitty job," would almost certain result in me getting fired.

I didn’t say anything about knowing or not knowing what she said. I actually had no idea what she said until I looked it up this morning.
No one deserves to get fired for simply tweeting about the Holocaust. It’s when they compare what happened to the people during that time with asinine examples of persecution that their tweets become akin to mocking. When they make comments like that and are associated with a particular place of employment, then people, stupid people, yes, can equate that individual’s words as being the company’s words. An employee at a center in my company was written up a couple of weeks ago (not by me) for telling a patient that the Covid vaccine is nothing more than a vehicle for nanobots to be injected into people so the government can keep tabs on everybody. He also told the patient that he’ll quit before he’ll ever be made to be vaccinated. (Which we don’t require, btw). So in that instance, as far as the patient is concerned, that employee was the mouthpiece of our company. Same thing with Carano. Which is sad, because I thought she was pretty hot. A terrible actor and certainly no Ming Na, but decent enough eye candy.
