Hopefully some people at least get money for food in the mean time.
Right now I feel like there are a scientists who would hide or discard results if they contradicted their advocacy beliefs,which is a dangerous place to be imo.
Especially when they try to lean on their status as scientists in order to try and have their opinions be more influential.
The cdc for example saying it's ok to disregard their previous guidance in order to protest for black lives matter is one of these credibility damaging moments that is hard to undo.
2) I believe people have the right to free association. I wouldn't fire someone for saying retarded, but people like forever_wario have the right to live their values.
3) Using politically controversial language in white collar working places that are traditionally woke or woke leaning is asking for trouble.
Seems like the kind of mistake you would make if you are not used to deploying external client facing applications.
