Fun fact: if "political issue" is optional for your straight White cis-male workers but a matter of life/death/safety for those who belong to marginalized groups, banning discussion & asking ppl to check it at the door before work inherently creates an unwelcoming environment
Imagine your company has an office in a state trying to pass a bathroom bill (which increase violence against trans & gender nonconforming folks). You say "not only are we doing nothing bc it& #39;s unrelated to crypto but ALSO you can& #39;t talk abt it with your coworkers who vote"
Imagine you& #39;ve seen a million versions of "unarmed Black person gets shot by cops / vigilantes" while White supremacist murderers get taken in & given burgers. every time you& #39;re like "wow wonder if any1 I know is next!" & your company says "plz focus on making widgets or else!"
super easy to say "focus on making us $" & view everything unrelated as a "distraction" if the state has never put a target on your back & marked you as disposable / worthy of attack
