Discussing politics at work is a huge liability. With the recent surge of outrage culture I’m not willing to put my job on the line to prove a point. I engage in discussion, but only online and anonymously.
I'm sorry, but I don't think having to listen to co-workers ram their ill-thought-out opinion down my throat is "freedom."
“Food isn’t political” is only “not political” for someone who is well fed and not concerned about where their next meal is coming from.
Everything is political.
