So what stopped you wearing your BLM shirt?
Like fuck you very much for implying that I don't believe black lives matter? When I literally just described the repression of political speech in the workplace I faced?
You chose to write it on the internet. I didn't expect you to get upset at a basic question.
All I wanted to know was how they stopped you when other people were allowed to wear political clothing. I'm not implying anything.
Idk if you've ever worked a shitty oppressive "essential" job during the peak of a pandemic because you couldn't afford to quit, & the US unemployment system doesn't pay out if you get fired for a cause dress code violations, so I had to not wear it in order to stay employed. I hope you understand, random who is casting aspersions on me and blaming me for the oppression and double standard and my workplace taking a racist political position, that I just described.
