It is similar to people pretending morality exists only within religion, human rights and labor rights are perfectly compatible with capitalism: positive example France, Germany, negative example - all the failed socialism attempts in the past 100 years, from Soviet Russia or North Korea to Venezuela and Cuba.
Note: I see labor rights part of the human rights, not as an economic or government system. I definitely consider "progressive social issues" a fake term trying to suggest the notion that "progressive" is related to real (positive) progress, while "progressive" is a term the socialist movement in USA hijacked for their benefit, completely unrelated to "progress" as in the English language dictionary.
As someone from Northern Europe I feel the need to point out that socialism != communism. The failed states you mentioned above all have/had a communistic rule. My impression is that media in the USA portrays these as being the same and evil which I don’t agree with.
If you think people implying that advancing issues important to powerless people is positive progress is some evil socialist deception, it's strange that you've latched on to the term "human rights" as if it refers to anything that exists or can be enforced.
Alternatively, we're just people that recognize that it's absurd to think you have, or even deserve, to use someone else's property for whatever you want.
Do you also think it's oppressive that public libraries have rules against using their computers for porn?
Nice ad hominem, though.
How you read this into my comment is beyond me. An employee cannot use the company-provided resources in whatever way they like. If they do, that's grounds for termination.
German labor laws recognize that total surveillance is not aligning with the values of a free society. Life does not stop at work, every company event should tell you that. Instead there needs to be indications that the employee is acting in bad faith, then the employer can "surveil" the employee in a limited fashion, like read work emails (not private emails) or search their desk. The same as police cannot search you whenever they like without reason.
In other countries like France and Belgium, the surveillance State has been aimed at specific communities and at remote colonies lately, but a generalized state of surveillance has not been seen since the 1940s so people tend to underestimate the dangers of that based on little living memory of how authoritarianism grows.
To me it’s absurd that the system is such that the one’s doing the most don’t get to decide what happens with the fruits of their labor, and are under the mercy of whoever happens to own that workplace.
