If you really think it's so outre you face being blackballed for having the wrong opinion then probably going on about the shadowy forces not letting you state your opinion isn't that wise either, but I think that's an absurd level of paranoia.
- krageon 3y agoTo be fair, the opinion could be so heinous that it would get anyone blackballed almost anywhere. A case could be made the opinion is so bad, that even implying it exists and letting the reader fantasise about how bad it is will not land them even close to the disaster that it really is. I must admit, I've woven a hypothetical so thick I'm starting to be curious about what the opinion could be. It was meant a little tongue in cheek though :)
- emodendroket 3y agoIf we’re imagining things that would be toxic enough that a substantial chunk of employers would steer clear of you, probably unambiguous hate speech is the biggest one.
- paganel 3y agoQuoting things out from an anatomy manual, for example, that can nowadays get you fired. Donating to the wrong political movements based on those beliefs/quotes/written down facts is another example, even CEOs from our industr have lost their job because of it. The paranoia dismissal should be left out of an honest discussion.
- emodendroket 3y agoIf you’re as worried as you claim to be you should probably be aware that from this comment chain I can pretty easily infer your political views.
