Good luck to you Professor Manson. I wish nothing but the best for you and your future. This postmodern/woke ideology snuck up on most everyone else, including me, seemingly overnight. I was fired from my position for a series of comments I posted on my personal FB page.

Good luck to you Professor Manson. I wish nothing but the best for you and your future. This postmodern/woke ideology snuck up on most everyone else, including me, seemingly overnight. I was fired from my position for a series of comments I posted on my personal FB page.
My comments were impolite, passionate, and were widely tolerated, except one woman, who just so happened to be a colleague of mine. She decided to take a screen shot of my comments to present to our employer's HR team director.
The snowflake claimed she felt threatened by my comments, which weren't directed at her, nor any one else in particular - the outcome: I was fired immediately.
My sense is this extreme and intolerant overreaction came directly from the director of the HR team, who previously worked for ultra-woke Ellen DeGeneres in hyper-woke LA. before becoming the so-called "Chief People Person" at my former company.
Lesson: unless you know and trust them as friends, you shouldn't have colleagues connected to you on social media (and your social media account should be private to friends only). LinkedIn is for anodyne colleague connections.
"Chief People Person", now there's a good example of a woke euphemism. They've gone from " Personnel Officer" to "Human Resources Director" to "Chief People Person". The words become more comfortable as the policies become more rigid and intolerant.
Yep. And I'm female. I'd much rather work with/for/lead a group of males than a group of females; previous eras, a combination was always best. Unfortunately the crazed, and I think basically unhappy, female social media shouting is ruling the day because there is no consequence other than agreeing with such in hopes they will go away. The tweets go up, any conflicting responses barred, and thus they believe they're righteous. Why quit? One thing still stuns me per quote from one of the other commenters said - paraphrasing - why should the loner at the end of the hallway get to decide what a leader does? And why should a leader promote illogical policy to keep the loner quiet? Very easy to clean up...leaders shouldn't let that poof of smoke at the end of the hallway rule their direction. Heavy handedness is needed.

Agreed!
Good advice.

Sam - what goes around comes around. Remember they eat their own (Didn´t Ellen have troubles of her own with these people?)
Welcome to the MATRIARCHY! It's one huge high school girls' restroom out there, complete with bullies at the door.

THAT is a topic well worth pursuing! How right you are!
If Shakespeare were writing today, he might substitute HR directors for lawyers.
And didn’t Ellen implode because of her nasty and bulling workplace? This HR BS is always offset by its hypocrisy.
Maybe the only alternative to all of this is stand your ground at work, document everything, then sue.
