8 out of 10. They’re more conservative than the Republicans? I don’t think so.
At work we have to be totally PC.
I am not in the arts. I have seven low-end rentals. But I NEVER say anything conservative (unless it is to someone I know) because I carry and I have seen, and experienced insane physical reactions. Liberals are, quite literally, crazy people. I don’t want to get into a situation where I must defend myself as I am old and fragile. I am not going to take a punch if I can avoid it, neither can I delver a punch. I support my candidates with money and my vote.
As Dirty Harry said, “A man’s gotta know his limitations.”
The Left is adopting the stance these days if you don’t publicly parrot their talking points, you aren’t doing enough for ‘the cause’ and are a part ‘of the problem’.
Card carrying commies only need apply.
Maybe we should reverse it on them.
Culture bullies are a curse to the Arts. It results in the garbage we see and hear from current attempts at art and music by two-dimensional artists.
A woman moved back to my hometown to take care of her parents and start her own catering business. She was an executive personal chef to many in Hollywood for 25 years and said many are very conservative but they have to keep their mouth shut. All the conservatives at parties would end up in the kitchen round a table talking during the course of the evening.
Ping!
I work for a large corporation and never discuss my politics openly, though some liberal colleagues routinely comment. I am pretty certain it would limit my career if I was open as to my conservatism. I do talk with like minded individuals but only behind closed doors.
i wonder what the rate is among pubic school teachers...
I used to work in the “culture field”, but then I went over to the tomato field because the cultures weren’t ripe yet.
bkmk
When I used to work outside the home, I always kept my mouth shut. Unless someone started talking about their political beliefs. Then I’d speak up every time and voice my opinion. When my boss started talking about climate change I argued the points with him. I even researched our local area weather and printed up the stats for the last 90-100 years to show that there was no significant change in temps. I figure that if they feel free enough to blather on about their beliefs, I am entitled to do the same.
Same is true in academia, even in STEM fields.
Anyone who confesses to conservative or even moderately right-leaning views will be forced out and effectively blacklisted. Everywhere. That is the way it works for those in “the arts” in the western world in the 21st century. The Marxists have so much power there and no one on the right with $$$ is willing to do much to fight it.
The majority is sitting down instead of running the two out of town! Who’s stupid
Political correctness is a communist idea to be shunned and ridiculed at every opportunity.
Speak up.
Speak out.
I am in a creative industry. One of my (otherwise) best employees absolutely loses it if anyone says anything positive about Trump. Easily 80% of the employees support Trump, but no one talks about it because no one wants to deal with the one crazy.
