It is surprising that those people put in charge to run business by stockholders are picking sides in front of employees who they have subordinate powers over them. This is big no no. Imagine being an employee who believes in conservatism and being forced in to group think, suppress your personal political speech and view. There is no difference in boss pitching himself as politically left vs boss pitching Christianity vs boss pitching male superiority over females. Business should never take sides in politics, race, gender or religion to make sure they are fair to all employees. Leaders needs to keep their view in these subject personal just as they keep their religious identity personal. Not doing this allows businesses to essentially hijack democracy by enforcing their political will on employees. Businesses should not be wielding their leverage of paychecks in to bending anybody’s political will and opinions.
- solipsism 8y agoImagine being an employee who believes in conservatism and being forced in to group think Forced? No one is forced to work for any given company. Companies are not mindless profit making machines. Not even public ones. They're composed of people. They have values. Some are very homogeneous culturally, some very heterogeneous. Business should never take sides in politics You are welcome to your opinion on that point. I don't agree, nor do many other people. As an employee and as a shareholder, I like companies with strong moral character. And that can include political action.
