Michael Lopez worked for a huge subdivision of an even bigger multinational entertainment corporation, the place that most of us imagine as a hotbed of woke virtue signaling. Certainly, Lopez thought that when he took a snowflake’s stand about the Dobbs decision, only to find his employer slapping him down like a mosquito on the wall. It’s just one person but it’s another small sign that the corporate world’s love affair with its bullying woke employees is finally ending.

We here have been commenting for years about what would happen to the college snowflakes when they finally got out into the real world. Amen, OP. That is exactly what should happen.
And Mikey, if you think you’re so oppressed here, why don’t you take your brown queer self to some place like Iran so that you can learn just how terrible America really is.

The employer saw right through his idiotic excuse to skip work.

Good the brown queer will just have to find another host to lay his mental illness on who might listen, but did he learn a lesson?

Free Speech versus Employer-Subsidized Speech
Mikey, on your employer's time, you used their tech to communicate your personal views with their customers, without being authorized by your employer to do so. The logical reaction from said customers would be that your employer supported your personal views. Apparently, you were wrong.
Free speech is on your on time, representing only yourself or an organization/group that allows you to speak for it. You and/or your organizations foots the bill is some manner. Apparently, your employer was not that organization.
Being retired, I don't know if this is a thing, but seems to me employers need to update employee handbooks and spell this stuff out.
Also, looks like Mikey was working from home. I wonder if he would have done this, if he had been working from the office rather than his kitchen table.

A brown snowflake, indeed. Soon to wander aimlessly in the streets of L.A., along with all the other thousands of human debris we euphemistically call “the homeless.”

I feel sorry for this poor, dumb Wokesters. By Golly, I do. In Bidenomics, where survival of the company becomes very intense and unemployment comes more pervasive, the Wokesters will experience this more and more. And the shock to find the world doesn't revolve around them will probably be too much. Sadly, a miserable life awaits the Wokesters that can't handle the really real world. And that is almost all of them.

This reinforces what so many adults have been saying for so long. He is of the generation that feels entitled, is spoiled, extremely immature, and has overblown importance. He also probably believes there are no winners or losers and that everyone wins a medal because if you do not you will be scared psychologically for life. Let me guess he went to an ivy league school that has safe rooms? The lesson he learned, that is if he is man and adult enough to learn from his mistake, is something he should have learned years ago.
The workplace is not anyone's own personal political pulpit. You are there to do work not to mourn and waller in self-pity. Giving an excuse of being depressed so you do not have to earn your keep is ridiculous. When will this generation learn that there is someone in the wings willingly and able to take your place and that they are not special? Also when working for foreign companies their work ethic and mindset are different, From what I have learned, the workplace is more traditional so you better leave your emotional baggage at the door and get to work.
Also, I would like to know where he gets the notion he is brown? He does not even look tan. Being gay, why does he care about women's reproduction anyway? The recent SCOTUS decision put a grown man in a state of depression...Really? This country is in trouble. He has issues! The company made the right decision. No sympathy from me!
