I am sure many of these people will land on their feet, but I would absolutely not hire someone who quit their last position because they were told to stop talking about politics at work.

Is there any place where you can exist, in 2021, without having political viewpoints crammed down your throat?

Some people just want to work. If you want to change the world go do it outside of business hours.

Depends on who you are. Some people have never had a refuge from others politicizing their existence.
