I don’t mourn his passing, i never liked him. But celebrating his assasination… Yeah, i would fire my employees as well if they did this publicly. I am against the death penalty, and in this case someone gave him the death penalty even without due process. If your value’s are such that you celebrate this, then your values don’t align with mine, and you have no place in my business.
I always thought i was politically left, but seeing the reactions of - not just a few, but a lot of - left wing people makes me wonder if i am indeed left.
Even if you don't celebrate his death, calling him a 'divisive figure' shouldn't get you fired
