If you believe you must use your workplace itself as a sounding board for your ideology, you’re doing a lot more to help evil triumph than the people treating a job as a job.
For example, your coworkers are not obligated to share your moral beliefs, convictions, or political opinions of current events. Making a workplace inherently confrontational in regards to these subjective, private opinions is seriously harmful.
I am 100% for your participation in activism, protests, and social reform. Just don’t bring it to work.
If you think such an attitude is somehow tacitly entrenching the status quo, you need to step back and consider that you, not the other person keeping politics out of work, are being bigoted and narrow-minded towards them, not the other way around.
