As someone who has to keep his mouth shut or be fired in every meeting I’m in while the rest of the 100% liberal group spout off about their pet peeve of the moment, I got no sympathy for this whiner.

My situation exactly. Those freaking lying victim-card-playing BS liberal whiners are the REAL authoritarians in our society. They are so oppressive with their Outrage & Opinions that the ONLY civilized thing to do is just avoid all conversation on all such subjects. Which is a classic case of censorship in action.

One of the guys I work with is on the fence (but is sadly too dumb to know it) and occasionally and INADVERTENTLY makes some sense. The unofficial office custodian of the Official Obama Version of Reality calmly but sternly always "explains" to the poor guy how he's wrong -- how he's been "listening to Republican sources".

It's like watching a young goat getting his testicles sliced off. Truly sickening.

But if I intervened, I would be stirring up such a cauldron of sh*t that it would severely impact my effectiveness in that company, and it would change no (zero, none) minds so I keep my mouth shut.

And by the way, that person in my office, that “unofficial office custodian of the Official Obama Version of Reality” often has leftwing tripe blasting on the speakers of his computer in his 4-person office.

I think the other 3 people are basically agnostic sheep who know how to reflexively say “yes, master” to all things commie, muzzie and Obammie, but don’t really give a flat, flying sh*t about all the garbage that comes spewing out of those speakers, at a rather high and unpleasant volume.

But being sheep, they say nothing.

Without getting involved in the politics, I would definitely refuse to work in that office. I would definitely say, “either the noise goes or I go”. It would never come to that. We are in different departments and I get a lot of respect around here, but if I had to, I would fight for the right for a decent working environment.
