For anyone who doesn’t believe this is a thing, here’s a Washington Post article:
“Opinion: To understand Trump’s support, we must think in terms of multiracial Whiteness”
Gab isn't a far right white supremacist website. It's just right wing Twitter. I don't understand where all this hyperbole comes from but it's a perfect example of the low-information individuals we have in society today.
Just take a quick look at the comments on the top stories in the “Gab trends” section:
https://trends.gab.com/item/60163b8f144291532b8bccb0 Bill gates conspiracy theorists
https://trends.gab.com/item/601682466beb1e3de3156fe1 “Pence is a traitor!”
https://trends.gab.com/item/6016992e144291532b8d5986 “Socialists are murderers!”
Are these normal right wing talking points?
I've seen equally whacky things trending on the left side, e.g. "Russian Ads on Facebook won Trump the election".
Why is that "whacky"? There were Russian ads.[1] They obviously intended to affect the election result (because why bother otherwise). Whether or not they were actually successful in affecting the election is unknowable. But it's not flat-earther-whacky to think they succeeded.

I'm aware I'm biased, but in this case the facts are in plain sight for Russian ads. A Republican authored that report. You may think yourself unbiased by saying "both sides are the same" but both sides are in fact not the same at all.
The "right" may say the same about "election fraud" but saying is not the same as having a well-sourced report, and federal investigation that netted multiple indictments and convictions.
3 of the top 10 gab groups are pushing the Qanon conspiracy theory, one is pushing the “StopTheSteal” extremist movement.
More seriously if you think that's a problem IMO the solution is to ask for better employee protection laws so that people can't be fired at will. This is not a free speech problem IMO, it's a worker right issue.
And if it turns out that her contract did mention that she shouldn't publicly engage in something that would damage the company's image or something of the sort, well, that's just the way it works really.
