Expressing a view on a political or social issue can be harmful to your career, if it isn’t of the progressive-approved variety:

The CEO of an American video game developer stepped down after he issued a statement supportive of the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in favor of a law in Texas that bans abortions after detection of a fetal heartbeat.

The company, Tripwire Interactive LLC, announced in a statement on Monday that John Gibson “has stepped down as CEO” of the company, effective immediately.

In general, people with more-conservative views tend to be more tolerant of other positions.  Unfortunately, that reinforces progressives’ sense that nobody decent disagrees with them, making disagreement seem like evidence of deplorableness.  So bravo for John Gibson.  More people need to speak up.  Of course, the consequences can be so severe for merely not agreeing with the left-wing fascists that it’s understandable that more people don’t.
