Am I the only one who thinks protesting against your employer and causing a disruption in your workplace is a FAFO scenario?

There was that woman a few years back (in the olde tymes, before the pandemic) who decided she wasn't going to do her job when LGBT couples applied for marriage licenses. Everyone with an IQ over 80 rightly called her out for her bullshit.

This isn't really any different. You can't support employees who exercise their individual freedoms to protest against an employer only when the cause is something you agree with.

Discriminating against people who haven't hurt anybody just because someone thinks they are lesser beings seems quite different from trying to get your employer to stop supporting people slaughtering an entire country and innocent people. If anything the person discriminating against LGBTQ couples is more like the Israelis who are butchering humans than the people protesting the violence.
