I was told that speech had consequences and anything but the Govt literally silencing you was ok for decades.

Damn. I guess that NOW HN cares about free speech, after highly paid fellows get fired from their jobs for doing dumb shit

I also believe they should be allowed to express their views at work and that is consistent with my views in the past.
