Great, but now bring it back to real life, because a ton of people are held accountable at work for comments made on social media and do have a boss.

A ton of people deal with all kinds of shitty problems at work, and the answer to most of them isn't to petition to fire some random dude that nobody in the situation has ever met who works for some other uninvolved company. The answer is to fix the shitty internal process that lets powers-that-be stalk and fire people for social media posts.

Bringing it back to real life: I don't fire my people for what they say on the internet.
