Life is much more complex than our first projections onto other people. You are writing unintelligent middle school sounding positions as if they are those of the people in question, then express your shock anyone would hold said positions, and writing obvious screeds to respond to them. You don't do something like this and not expect to be fired. That's a impersonal way to put it, maybe that will help avoiding debating if it is snide or not. (note: I am new to the thread, not the person who called it snide previously)

Why do you keep doing this?

The person you are responding to has provide supporting arguments in their comment. If you have a response to those arguments, make it.

Thanks forum moderator, I appreciate you guiding us to the right way to make a discussion. Your input in this thread is invaluable.
It's not. As I said, that's what I take from a video where a string of people had some of the best paying jobs available to any kind of worker, and at one of the most significant companies in the world right now, but don't seem to appreciate how fortunate they were to be in that situation or that they are replaceable.

"Reason" is what will get them in trouble here. A reasonable company is unlikely to keep or re-hire disruptive employees when it has other options, and boy does it have other options right now in this tech labor market.
> being snide about it isn't helpful.
I'm not being snide. They have every right to stand up for what they believe in, and there is something noble in that regardless of whether you agree with their view. I'm just remarking on how these individuals don't seem to realize what they had and what they've likely lost.
