"A company should not be able to make X part of their policy."

In what country is an employee allowed to violate their company's policy?

That's you. If only there was a word for this... Shmallacy?

The actual question would be,

In what country is an employer barred from firing a person for talking about politics?

Maybe I'm giving you too much credit, but I feel like you knew this and realize how stupid you sounded. The better thing to do would probably just have been to quietly exit the conversation.

By the way, check usernames, I just entered this thread.

Wow, you're one of those annoying idiots who think being aggressive makes them right. Good thing this platform has an "block" feature

Aggressive? Uh what?
