I didn't intend to instill fear, sorry that there is a comprehensions.

I don't believe that apolitical workplaces actually exist. That you can view workplaces as apolitical is either ignorance or privilege



If people aren't proselyting their views on how the country should be run then it is apolitical. This is the norm. You must be very damaged if you think this is impossible.


I will not do a repeat of the discussion on how supporting the status quo is in itself a political statement.

But you must be very naive if you think how a company is run has no effect on how a country is run.

Fifty year ago in the US whether your company had segregated bathroom or not was a proselyting of their views on how the country should be run.

Now it whether trans should be allowed to use the bathroom they want.

Why? Because they are political decision taken from the people working there.
