That's What Fake Names And Burner Accounts Are For

The story of the TV producer in San Francisco who got fired for tweeting how it should be open season on protestors in Oakland illustrates... well, what we already know, which is that you can get fired for tweeting stuff that some might find offensive. You know, it's not hard to avoid such an outcome. Stay away from politics and religion and you're fine. You might think, oh, that's anti-free speech, but it's more like how you conduct yourself when you're having conversation at a party, or at a family gathering. You don't say everything that's on your mind, because you don't want to start a fight. On the other hand, if you DO want to express yourself on controversial issues, you can, but don't expect everyone to react the way you want them to.
