Heres an alternative way of thinking about it - why are you around someone you dislike? Businesses are not families, but if you cannot get along with your cowokers you cannot be that cooperative with them. Fundamentally I at least do not want to work with someone who is even still on the level of asking questions like "is racism bad?" or "do women deserve rights?". But a lot of people do do that. If I was hiring... I wouldn't want to hire people thinking like that. Its going to negatively impact what would almost certainly be a diverse group of people trying to cooperatively work together. It only feels problematic because we each recognize both how biased against the worker the power dynamic in modern western society is and that the job is not merely "the thing you do during the day with your buds" but "the means by which you put food in your mouth and have a bed". If its only about the former breaking relations over political leanings makes perfect sense, for the latter its ruining someones life over "frivolous politics". I'd rather be in the world where groups dissociate over ideological incompatibilities but where nobody is homeless or hungry for it than the one where ones need for food and shelter is an excuse to let toxic people make life worse for those around them.
