Yeah, it's terrible that people can be fired for literally no reason in this country. This wouldn't have happened in a country that has any semblance of worker

  "Literally no reason" ?? He was recorded flashing a white power symbol while driving a (presumably liveried) company truck. Now I think, after hearing his story, that a public apology and explanation would have been enough. But he brought the company into disrepute. Firing him seems to be a valid option they could take. I personally think that raising awareness with a public apology and a statement from the company would have been better for everyone, but so often, a company's first response is to cover their ass. Or maybe they didn't believe him, while the reporter did? I wasn't there and can never know.

    You're going to tell me this one guy "brought the company into disrepute" to a point that warranted firing him, when Equifax can expose the financial history of almost every American adult, and nobody gives a shit anymore? The guy worked for the power company. What are people gonna do, stop paying their electric bills? Buy electricity and gas from another supplier?

    Stop giving the racists power to coopt innocent symbology. The swastika was virtually lost that way.
