Things like who is allowed in the women's restroom, perhaps?

See, that’s the thing: nobody gives a crap who uses which bathroom at work. Really. Nobody argues about that. But arguing about policy or socialism or who is a real communist or not is not work-appropriate.
And that’s not to say companies can’t make political decisions. Company policy for letting trans people use the restroom that matches their gender identity is fine because it’s not people arguing about Trump during lunch, it’s an official company policy. I just want my coworkers to stop getting into arguments about things that then make it really awkward to work with them.
