@cuibonobaby How in the world did you get that from what I just said? Being in the KKK is not a political association.

@MattFerrel

You: Hahaha they can get other jobs and feed their family

Also you: We need to boycott them and make sure they cant get any jobs!

@ThatPrilla @heidilifeldman

@cuibonobaby

How has my original position changed? huh

The new information I responded to was the assertion that they could probably find new jobs easily enough. My original position never asserted that them being unable to find new work is the only reason that would justify them being a clerk, so how did I move the goalposts?

@cuibonobaby LOL as if adapting ones position when new information is learned is a bad thing.

@cuibonobaby Thats not what im saying.. what im saying is even nazi's werent found guilty simply for having hitler as a "boss"

@ThatPrilla

For the corruption component I see two sides... Before the corruption was exposed they may not have known, so i wont hold that against them unless specific evidence surfaces they knew... After the corruption was exposed its not their responsibility to judge or investigate if the corruption is legitimate. There are mechanisms in place for that already and that is where that should be decided.

@heidilifeldman

@ThatPrilla

Regardless, even if they could find a job, no this is wrong without actively reviewing their specific actions. They may very well be offering dissenting opinions to Thomas and very much trying to push him the opposite direction.

These sort of idiotic blanket boycots on people simply by association, particularly employment, is not the way to go on any level.

@chapulin_enojado

1) They may be aware, they may not.. If you can show they were aware and didnt make any illegal actions public then youve got my support.

2) Starving because you cant afford to eat is a gun against your head. You are assuming they have offers for working 500K at some other law firm, they may not.

3) Again then demonstrate specific things the clerk did wrong and you have my support... If they created a draft that was their own opinion and not at the direction of Thomas, and it has damning stuff in it, then by all means share it and Ill be happy to support any resistance against such a person.

@opendna @heidilifeldman

@ThatPrilla

Yes they are, and who they worked for should not change that. Now if they actively did anything on their own then by all means hold it against them. Thomas's decisions arent their own, nor do they necessarily have the luxury to quit.

@heidilifeldman

@chapulin_enojado

Even nazis dont qualify as war criminals just by being nazis. The ones who we find guilty actively gave orders rather than just following them. The reason is the same, much like people have to eat and work you'd get shot and killed if you stood up against your commander int he nazi army.

@opendna @heidilifeldman

@ThatPrilla @heidilifeldman

Its not about awareness. People need to feed their families, or are trying to get training so they can get hired.

Not to mention that forcing him to not have a staff isnt going to solve a damn thing, if anything will just make him worse not better.

@mkb Yes I am a huge fan of the KISS protocol, I use it all the time to talk to APRS TNC... using it right now!

@rticks

He isnt a terrorist, he is a horrible human in many ways... but not a terrorist... and people need to feed their children. Most dont have the luxury to choose.

@heidilifeldman

@Ed_Brickell Yes and that is a fine reason to hate him... but someone working for them are often just feeding their family and not necceseraly guilty of their bosses crimes.

@cowblizzard

Well lets hope people boycott you and refuse to ever hire you again for having such fascist views. Maybe you will learn something.
