I'm pretty sure it is protected under the first amendment, especially as long as you don't actively advocate direct violence etc.

Not in the workplace it isn't. If you allow employees to openly use racial slurs and supremacist ideology in the office the courts will happily throw the book at you when someone files a discrimination complaint.

Will they throw the book at you or at the company?

"Pretty sure" is not gonna cut it here. White supremacy is nothing but a threat.

Ok, I'm absolutely sure that hate speech is protected under the first amendment.

That's not what the supreme court seems to think.
