> [@Blalron](#): > > What if the employee is nothing but courteous and polite to customers and employees while he is on the clock, and only expresses his hatred off the clock? No. It goes to the basic idea of character and if I know someone has that kind of shit inside them, I can’t trust that it wouldn’t start to leak out. Now I can deal with the idea that other people see the world differently for me, and I’m probably not going to fire someone for being a Republican or having different views on heathcare or economics or public policy ( unless they are loud and obnoxious about it ). And that goes for people that are loud and obnoxious about any political opinion, including liberal ones. Now, in real life things aren’t simple, and people are seldom fired for just one reason. And I might have a really low bar when it comes am employee that is substandard and easily replaced, who I might have even been keeping around out of sympathy. And I might put up with more for an exemplary employee with specialized skills. But advocation of white supremacy or admiration for white supremacy groups is a deal breaker for everyone, it’s a safety issue for my other employees. ---

> [@JB99](#): > > I’ve been giving this thread a lot of thought and I can certainly understand why someone might want to extend the benefit of the doubt and tolerate a person’s private eccentricities or political beliefs. This is not about ‘politics,’ however. This is about morality. Namely, the employer tolerated the employee’s harassment, insubordination, and immorality. “Political view” is such a broad thing that it’s practically meaningless. Believing that people should be allowed to have sex with children is every bit a political position as believing in small government and low taxes. Frankly, I don’t want to live in a society where I have to wait until a card-carrying NAMBLA member is caught screwing a child while on the clock before I can actually fire him. I want to live in a society that allows me the freedom to remove such a high-risk individual the moment I find out about him. From a business stand-point, it would be ludicrous to wait until a harmful act is committed, since once there’s harm, potentially permanent damage has already been done to the company’s good name. I wonder if the MAGAbomber had ended up terrorizing his coworkers instead of political figures, could they have made a case against their employer for ignoring the warning signs? It seems to me they could have. ---

> [@monstro](#): > > This woman is not a decent person. She isn’t a hero. She’s either an amoral capitalist or she’s a spineless coward. Those are not decent qualities.

She isn’t good. She isn’t evil either, but come-the-fuck-on. ## Yeah, that’s pretty close to my position (which is somewhat less hard line than yours). Not evil. But really: not laudable. It’s one thing when you get bigotry to your own face. It’s another when you expose your employees to it. And there’s something wrong and ill-considered about having the guy deliver your pizzas with his hate festooned van. Even if he does so in the dark. That reflects onto your business. Oliver Willis on twitter: People asserting that the racism, misogyny and xenophobia embraced by the right is merely a point of view like “cut taxes” are engaging in white privilege. And frankly that’s not a term I like to use but it’s hard to see it as anything else. Every day these people demonize people who look like me and they’ve been at it for 3 solid years. I can’t look at that and just shrug that it’s merely “one point of view.” [https://twitter.com/owillis/status/1056710151821058048](https://twitter.com/owillis/status/1056710151821058048) It’s reasonable to carve out extremism. One particularly serious signal is exterminationist rhetoric and imagery. If you can’t keep that out of the workplace, that’s a bright red flag. Ah but maybe she could have persuaded him! If that’s the gambit then she should have tried, starting with a demand for professionalism in his window decals if he was going to represent the business with his preferred form of transport. That could be a proper starting point that **JB99** alluded to. ---

This is about _morality._ Namely, the employer tolerated the employee’s harassment, insubordination, and immorality. > > Here’s the thing: In every single one of these mass killer terrorist situations, the perpetrator practically broadcast to the world that he was going to commit violence. They throw up red flags all over the place. And one of the things we know about these sorts of crimes is that nobody just wakes up one morning and randomly decides to go kill their racial enemies. There is a radicalization process. They test the waters and escalate by degrees. In the case of Nidal Hassan - for example - the perpetrator consistently and brazenly talked about jihadist Islam and praised terrorists. His leadership ignored him. We see the exact same thing in rape cases. A perpetrator begins with innuendo and ribald jokes, and escalates their misbehavior over time. This is why so much rape prevention training focuses on early intervention. > > The employer in this example thought she was doing good by turning the other cheek. She wasn’t. Every time this person uttered a hateful thought and got away with it, the message he received was, “This is okay.” He saw there were no consequences and no real criticism, so he took it as an implicit message that his behavior was acceptable. And then he escalated to the next level. > > If no one tells him he is wrong and makes him face some kind of consequence, the perpetrator will not self-correct. He will take their silence as consent and acceptance. I basically concur with your reasoning, but the presumption of self-correction may not always be true and the course of events may, in fact, be just the opposite. That’s what makes this such a challenging situation to deal with: by firing the guy, shunning him, and socially ostracizing him, it’s not only depriving him of a livelihood and sending him into financial desperation and destitution, but proving in no uncertain terms that’s he’s an outcast with no place in society. That can be very radicalizing – in fact, that’s how some westerners ended up joining ISIS, or more commonly end up just being criminals and occasionally domestic terrorists. Not because they were fired – and I hope my thoughts aren’t mischaracterized that way – but because more generally they were reduced to being total outcasts from society. The riots and unrest among Muslims in France is the result of just that kind of ostracization. OTOH, tolerating dangerous impulses can be equally dangerous. One needs to see both sides of it. His employer hardly seemed to have the mental capacity to be up to that challenge. The only really good solution is to prevent the problem from happening in the first place, and to do that you need a society that doesn’t nurture hateful values, and doesn’t allow them to fester and grow. And the tragedy of the Trump era is that it’s the exact opposite, and he and his malignant base nurture hateful values just as surely as the Nazis did. The putative goal is to improve the lot of the common man against the forces allegedly arrayed against him, but the real beneficiaries are the white supremacists and ultranationalists. Guess who else did exactly the same? I still can’t get over how, when this guy was captured and his truck was found emblazoned with Trump-worship idolization and anti-Democrat hate, instead of even a hint of moral leadership all Trump could do was claim “it’s not my fault”! ---

Neither one of you knows what nobility is. Peace and love hippies have jack shit to do with this. And someone has probably already mentioned this, but this opens the employer to all kinds of litigation under anti-discrimination laws. Hypothetical Example: A Muslim works at a store. Another employee walks around talking about terrorists and ragheads and telling her she is going to hell for being Muslim. The employee is frightened by his hate speech. The employer is now open to legal liability for violating Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. Lawyers would be stumbling over each other for the chance to represent her. That lawsuit would be a slam dunk. And if this guy threatened someone and then committed an act of violence in the workplace, the employer could be found liable for failing to provide reasonable security against a foreseeable threat. So even if someone doesn’t care about the _moral_ reasons to keep bigots out of their workplace, there are practical ones as well. ---

BTW, Debbie didn’t own the business: “My mother used to tell me all the time, be kind to people, maybe he’s sick, maybe he’s suffering, maybe something happened to him. And that’s what I kept saying,” she said. “There were days I would go in the back and cry.” Sayoc carried around a “beautiful” hunting knife in a suede pouch, but never got into fights with co-workers and did not seem like a threat, Gureghian said. If he had his way, though, the United States would wipe Hispanics, blacks and gays off the map. … “Reliable, dependable, never had any customer complaints,” she said. “I couldn’t fire him. I’m not the owner. I’ve had other people threaten me when I had to fire them. I found him a threat to my emotional head, the toxicness, but I didn’t find him a threat that I was fearful of my life.” Read more here: [https://www.miamiherald.com/latest-news/article220734310.html#storylink=cpy](https://www.miamiherald.com/latest-news/article220734310.html#storylink=cpy) No, Debbie isn’t laudable but she also isn’t a political philosopher. She manages a one shop pizza joint. [Here’s a pic](http://newriverpizzaonline.com/about). I doubt whether she was familiar with Karl Popper’s [Paradox of Tolerance](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance) and I don’t expect her to be. Still, she made a bad call both morally and a business-wise I say: delivering food in a van that’s notoriously bigoted in your neighborhood isn’t good for business. ---
