Reminder. No matter your personal opinions, do not piss off the hands that feed you.

Alternatively, stand up for your principles but be prepared for the consequences.

And the consequences is now a couple weeks of unemployment and struggling to feed their family.

All of that can be done WITH a job, you know?

That’s not necessarily wrong, but it’s a dangerous precedent. How many people throughout history have done terrible things to be able to provide for their family? At what point does it become immoral not to take a stand?
