If you are a manager or an employer, don’t hesitate to investigate your employees’ social media pages and fire those who express SJW views. The precedent has been clearly established: anyone who makes “unacceptable” remarks that do not reflect a company’s values can be terminated:
A man accused of sending racist private messages to a Black Lives Matter Facebook page has lost his job with food giant Archer Daniels Midland.
Brad Schultz used a racial epithet in referring to the group and told them “get out of town with your [expletive] protesting,” based on screenshots of the messages widely circulated over social media. Schultz’s message added that they should “just leave, white people don’t like you.”
At least one Facebook group posted the messages publicly last week along with a number for ADM, where Schultz was employed. The post was shared more than 1,000 times. According to screenshots of Schultz’s Facebook page, he lives in Mankato.

They would not specify whether he resigned or was terminated. “These remarks are unacceptable and do not reflect ADM’s values,” the statement said.
Schultz did not return a call seeking comment Tuesday afternoon.
Screenshots show he later apologized to Black Lives Matter, seemingly after the comments had gone public. “It was cruel, and I didn’t mean it,” Schultz wrote in another private message. “In no way is my workplace affiliated with these comments. Please delete them.”
“Internet justice is real,” Minneapolis NAACP President Nekima Levy-Pounds posted on Facebook Tuesday afternoon. “Hopefully, individuals will learn from Brad Schultz’s mistake and think twice before making racist statements on social media.”
In like manner, any anti-Christian or even anti-Christmas statement is sufficient grounds for termination, as it can be described as “unacceptable anti-religious bigotry”. Those will probably be the easiest to find, especially among millennials. It should be relatively easy to disemploy any militant atheist working in the corporate world. There are also an increasing number of anti-white comments that can be identified.
Note once more that apologizing is utterly futile. Given the amenability of the authority involved, it probably didn’t matter what Schultz did. But the point is that an apology is NEVER going to save you once you have made yourself vulnerable to SJWs and been targeted by them.
