Heresy
This thing where people want to say horrible things without consequence is just so weird. I have the right to judge your statements just as much as you have a right to say them. I have the right to leave jobs when it turns out the people working there hate people like me, and companies have the right to hire people who aren&#x27;t going to alienate future potential employees.<p>When people bring up posts like this they never say what the &quot;heresies&quot; are. People aren&#x27;t getting &quot;cancelled&quot; for their takes on taxes. People aren&#x27;t getting fired for picking nomad over kubernetes. People are getting called out for denying the existence of people who aren&#x27;t like them. When someone gets fired for, as an example, purposefully misgendering their colleagues- that isn&#x27;t getting fired for having a bad opinion, that&#x27;s being fired for making a hostile work environment.<p>What&#x27;s always interesting to me is that these &quot;free speech absolutists&quot; are explicitly calling out the left here, when the right is the one passing &quot;don&#x27;t say gay&quot; legislation and refusing to allow trans children the healthcare needed to save their lives. The right is also kicking everyone out of their party who doesn&#x27;t bow before Trump. To say that the left is creating heresies while ignoring that the right is literally creating new dogma is just delusional to me.
