That's an indication that the US needs to fix their laws about wrongful termination. It's unrelated to "censorship".
Of note, the current president and the party that nominated him, many of whom are complaining about this current situation, is in favour of "at will" hiring, whereby a person can be fired without reason.
- BlackFly 6y agoI agree they need to fix their laws, but this is censorship. Punishing people for their speech with the intention of suppressing other people from speaking is censorship and the people that do it are would-be censors. That is what the statement of chilling effect means. Instead of harassing librarians until the librarians burn books, the censors nowadays harass employers until they fire the speakers.
