That's exactly how it should work. > using the website to display anti-black ideology and actively plan rallies to remove my rights. When it's not a crime and it's completely based on your subjective view: you're kidding yourself if you think that process is going to be a just measure. Likely, it's just going to be a free for all, whoever gets offended at what. Let me add another colleague to your mix. Asian guy: I don't agree on these statements. I'm quitting if we remove this content. You see where this is going?

Objectively speaking, it's your privilege that makes this issue seem subjective enough to dismiss it so.

  What would you say if these grassroots movement talked webshots into taking down all BLM sites for promoting an officially recognized terrorist organization? Would you still be in favor of workplace politics? Currently you are privileged since the side you like has the power. If you aren't fine with the situation if you lose that privilege then you aren't fine with workplace politics.

    I don't think the BLM movement is "in power". That seems woefully misinformed. Moreover, BLM and such movements aim to overcome white privilege to enable the equal treatment of colored people. I can see why this may feel aggressive to a white person, and your argument about sides confirms that.

      > I don't think the BLM movement is "in power". That seems woefully misinformed. Then why aren't their webpages being taken down while pages from some of the opposite sides are? So to me it is pretty obvious that people supporting BLM have more power than the people supporting white nationalism. > Moreover, BLM and such movements aim to overcome white privilege to enable the equal treatment of colored people. I can see why this may feel aggressive to a white person, and your argument about sides confirms that. I don't even live in the US, nothing the BLM movement does affects me. I do know that Trump made it an official terrorist organization though, so it would be fairly easy to argue for takedown of their sites if you don't like them.

        A white supremacist like Trump classifying an opposing movement like BLM as a terrorist organisation, is exactly the problem.

        Yes, which is why we shouldn't let companies take down websites just based on workers political views, since then the BLM sites would likely get taken down if the views of their workers were right wing.
