The public sector purge is beginning
American Thinker ^ | 14 Jan, 2021 | Andrea Widburg

Posted on 01/14/2021 4:27:34 AM PST by MtnClimber

A former Trump worker allegedly lost his job simply because a pro sports league refused to work with a company that would employ Trump workers.

Dawson Buchanan, a young Trump supporter, left a very disturbing thread on Twitter. He asserts that he was all set to begin working for a company called Private Jet Services. However, shortly before he was to begin, PJS fired him. He finally learned from the owner that PJS had a contract with the National Hockey League. When the NHL learned that PJS had hired someone who had worked for the Trump company, the NHL said PJS had a choice: Buchanan or the NHL. PJS opted for the company that helps pay its bills.

SNIP

What’s important for purposes of this post is that, if Buchanan’s facts are accurate, it’s clear that the left is determined to marginalize Trump supporters and other conservatives. They have already made absolutely clear that they intended to deny them a voice in a computerized world, to leave them without access to banks, and to make sure that they cannot be employed. Indeed, Curt Schilling has been told that, as a high-profile conservative, he’s now uninsurable. I’m sure there’s a lawsuit there too. We are to be driven from pillar to post, like lepers of old.

In the long term, the left’s is an unsustainable tactic. Depending on the circumstances, it’s almost certainly illegal in many cases. And finally, if leftists are determined to “de-person” Trump supporters, it cannot end well for America as a whole.

Be careful what you say about those communist, scumbag leftists. They will de-person you.

I changed my voter registration to Democrat to stave off The Purge. Even utility billing will have higher rates for the “insurgents”

I couldn’t fight my gag reflex enough to go that far.

Just “unaffiliated”.

I’ve got to wonder how the NHL learned that a jet company hired a Trump supporter. Sounds fishy to me.

Since the left believes that there is an endless number of genders, and they push hard to make sure “gender” is a protected class, we just need to invent a gender that encompasses conservatism, and bingo, we’re untouchable. Maybe something like “testosterone-positive, queer-averse.” It sounds kind of like their B.S., and by the time they figure out what it means hopefully we’ll have grabbed the reins of power back from them (somehow).

Ditto, very careful here.

It’s actually even worse than that. This guy working for Trump doesn’t have to mean that he is either a Trump supporter or a conservative.

I wonder if one can refuse to bake a cake for a Republican, or someone who worked for the Trump administration, or someone who has been banned by Twitter FB Etc?

I doubt this is true. The de-personing has been going on for years.

We are China now.

How long before Freepers has to shut down? Or has to heavily moderate comments?

Trump said it will require courage. Without courage we are destined to lose it all and the Communist win.

I almost wonder if someone within the company reported this hire to the NHL.

It COULD have been someone in HR or possibly a secretary.

On the left there may be standing orders not to hire Trump administration employees.

Unless you are posting using your employer's computer/resources how does your employer know that you are Altura Ct?

Yes, many in HR positions are SJWs. It is emphasized in every HR training they attend.

Probably, someone in HR did a search of the employee’s social media and uncovered the link.

Then, the HR person went to the HR person at the customer.

Watch your social media.

Before long it will be absolutely ok to refuse services to any maga patriot. It’s already beginning. As I keep saying, there’s but one way out of this and it’s not going to be pretty. We cannot depend on pols we voted for that weren’t part of the fraud election system, cannot rely on our vote being counted, cannot rely on the dominant party to work on behalf of America’s interests, cannot rely on the judicial system to resolve disputes and the list goes on. The only solution will be watering the tree of liberty, then certain states cecede from the union. That is unless we the people simply cave to the socialist demands and the demise of the USA without a fight.

The article says he left a “very disturbing thread” online. Sorry but that’s just being stupid. So he really lost his job because he posted some rabid comments in a public forum. How is this different from the legal counsel of pbs talking about reeducation camps? My disturbing comments are spoken face to face and my phone is in another room, off a in a box. If I want to share then I mail a letter through the post office. We need to be smarter than this guy.

If you had read the article, you would see that he posted online about this AFTER he had been fired.
