A woke Universal Music Group employee has been fired after refusing to work due to 'mourning' the overturn of Roe v. Wade.
Michael Lopez, a former production coordinator at Universal Music Enterprises, slammed the company for firing a 'queer brown person' during Pride month for speaking in favor of 'abortion rights,' he wrote on LinkedIn.
'Paired with the flood of anti-queer and anti-trans legislation, it's been hard to process how company's expect us to be productive while our rights are being stripped away,' Lopez wrote. 'Especially when our company has been donating to several of these politicians.'
On June 24, the day the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade was overturned in a 6-3 vote, Lopez was tasked with 'processing reports for upcoming releases' and send them to 275 people.
Rather than do what he was tasked, Lopez elected to send an email to those on the list to explain why he couldn't complete the job.
'I didn't do them (the reports) today,' the email read. 'I'm in mourning due to the attack on people with uteruses in the US. Federally guaranteed access to abortion is gone. Universal Music Group must stop donating to anti-abortion, anti-queer and anti-trans politicians. Politicians like Marsha Blackburn, Ken Buck, Victoria Spartz, etc. Or expect more unproductive days.'
Lopez was immediately met with support from his co-workers and received a call from his manager to take the rest of the day off. He assumed, based on that call, 'there was a good possibility' he may be fired.
'I was proud of letting allies know that our company has been donating to these politicians,' he added.

This 'thing' being fired is more evidence the fake affront act is past due for the dustbin.
None of their bedroom antics will result in human life that they will then desire to savagely murder for their own pleasure.
So why would it care?
Sooooo a butthurt homo gets a case of the flamebutt because he can’t get an abortion?
Clownworld.
Hmm. The race card so soon?
Somehow, I managed to work while my 2nd Amendment rights were being stripped away when I lived in NJ. Screw this guy, you work whether you’re happy or sad, otherwise don’t expect someone else to support you for doing nothing. Bereavement policies are for when an actual person in your life dies, not when you can’t hack the fact that 6 Supreme Court Justices disagree with your worldview.
Come on people he just needs a shoulder to cry on..poor thing. /s
During Pride Month, the bastards! Couldn’t they have waited until July 1 to fire his worthless butt?
“On June 24…Lopez was tasked with ‘processing reports for upcoming releases’ and send them to 275 people.

So, not only did he not do his job, he misused company assets. If it had just been skipping out on work, he probably just would have been written up or something. That’s the thing that really got him fired.
Ironically gratifying to put it that way.
You’re not supposed to fire homosexuals during gay pride month. Who knew?
What months are you not supposed to fire heterosexuals?
Novel concept to the wokies, that one could actually be required to do the job for which they are hired and being paid.
Maybe he can’t look for another job because he is grieving too much about the job from which he stupidly got himself fired.
Why would a homosexual “mourn” the Supreme Court overturning the Roe vs. Wade. This clown is a liar.
50 years ago a “queer brown person” would have been a Puerto Rican who liked Lutefisk and didn’t know how to dance.
Professional victims don’t need to actually be part of the victim group, they simply need to be ‘aware of that group’s pain’ to be a victim of it.
Stupid as stupid can get.
LGBT is an anti-life path in a horde of respects and that is why LGBT people are almost invariably pro-abortion.
LGBT people are almost invariably for abortion due to a disdain for straights, whom they label breeders, and due to a hatred of babies that are conceived when straight men and straight women are together in a natural way.
“Just as a matter of curiosity why would a sodomite give a flip about abortion?”
Considering most of them are friends with tons of women, I assume this is the reason. Likely also some degree of ideological identification with the rabid Leftists who are literally up in arms about Dobbs. Leftists are collectivists by nature.
I’m friends with a woman who has a number of gay clients (she runs a vintage shop) and am acquainted with one of them. He’s remarkably conservative on many fronts, but he said the overturning of Roe would send him to the Democrstic party. I wasn’t present when he said this, but considering I’m the object of his singular opposite-sex attraction and armed with facts, I may have been able to change his mind.
