Whether you view regulation as authoritarianism or not does not mean thats it bad for society.

It is not my view. It is fact.

Okay lets pretend its a fact for a moment its still not bad for society.

No need to pretend.

METT-TC dependent.

It’s an opinion.

One that I do not hold.

I guess we will once again to agree to disagree.

Political science? It’s a weird opinion of yours.

Goodyear have already explained. It was a managers intrepretation.

Link?

Everything I’ve seen from Goodyear did not and would not deny this as being accurate.

The letter says, “we have a longstanding corporate policy that asks associates to refrain from workplace expressions in support of any political candidate or party”. They attempted to make this about support of law enforcement because that’s where a lot of their business for tires comes from. This is about the endorsement of BLM and if you notice, no where in that letter was it addressed.

Really!!!

So what if Goodyear as a corporate entity supports BLM. My employer has a PAC that supports certain candidates and we are still now allowed to wear anything withb political slogans or endorsements. Their house their rules.

You have said regulation is your motto.

You can have two mottos.

Without regulation in life, might as well be a hermit.

Then I’ll show my disagreement with them by refusing to do business with them. See how this works when a company chooses to go political? They then risk dividing their customers who’ll vote with their dollars and in this case, it worked.

Worse. At least his “enemies” actually know what they’re doing.

Trump is all in for the American worker until some insignificant HR guy makes a policy locally that angers Trump. Now he wants to burn the whole company down to the ground. Calling for a boycott may cost people their jobs, but hey, Trump got his wittle feeelers hurt so it is justified, right?

Perfect example of how when it comes down to who Trump would support when the choice is between himself and someone else.

jcrandall · 2020-08-23T14:08:01.350Z

What about “regulation” by means of a boycott?
