Socially permissible is code for things that people approve or disapprove of as a general rule. Your business will not do very well if you do these socially impermissible things. People will not want to work for you if they have other choices, which means you will have the bottom of the employee barrel, customers will not want to hire you or use your products unless you make them much cheaper or better than the competition and that will negatively affect your margin and state and federal agencies will realize you’re a popular target and file suit for the employer discrimination you’ve outlined above. Good luck in your future endeavors, because you will need it.

Most seem to have become disconnected with this reality in the era of our massively inflated economy (and tech industry).

It will be interesting to see the absolute meltdown that occurs when the next recession rolls around/investment moves on from tech.
