Upon googling it, the amount of outcry as a response makes it pretty obvious to me that it's considered exceptional and not normal. Does anyone have any aggregated studies about social media and firing?

Is it? Note that the person here accused is both Jewish and Mexican: https://www.snopes.com/news/2018/09/04/lawyer-accused-flashi...

Other examples exist of people being removed from their jobs for the same if you Google for it, though many of those are more ambiguous.

That may be. However, it strikes me that most if not all of these cases are US-based. The world works differently in different places.
