A sharp reminder that “free speech” under capitalism effectually doesn’t apply to your job, ie the thing that you spend nearly half your waking hours on and your primary way of contributing to the functioning of society. Some employers might be more lenient but Amazon is big and successful because it is ruthless in this and all other things.<p>This is yet another reason I think we desperately need to democratically plan our economy; which is another way of saying we need to extend democracy into the workplace and the sphere of production.
