No - things like the expanding power of HR within corporations to terminate employees for "offensive" speech, LGBT & abortion oriented events being held and curriculum being taught in tax-funded schools, and certain governments like Australia and England's going so far as to arrest people for "offensive" speech towards a few select minorities while permitting and often funding hateful speech towards others.
Creating a bright and attention drawing flag to represent yourself under wasn't a great idea if you didn't want attention.

So you think workplaces should be hostile environments, got it.

You abandoned god and country because you couldn't shout the n word on the factory floor, somebodies kids somewhere were learning about gender and reproductive health, and the inconvenient fact that australia makes laws for australia?
...and now, you're bitching about flags? Are you one of those weird flag haters too?

I believe workplaces should be about productivity, not politics.

No; I abandoned the woke ideology when I realized it was a political tool for some and an anti-scientific and anti-reason cult for others.

Men behaving as uncultured cavemen in the workplace will not ensure greater productivity.

Having your more productive workers fired for jokes that hurt less productive workers feelings will ensure reduced productivity.

There's always someone else to fill your role in the workplace. Never assume you are irreplaceable.

So, presumably, either people shouldn’t interact with their coworkers or workplaces should be (in terms of things like race, gender, or general values) homogenous? Because those are the only ways to practically avoid the sort of things you’re complaining about.
Either that or, if an employer says something sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic, or what have you, to an employee, said employee should just take it up the ass and not complain.

I believe workplaces should be about equal opportunity for all. Your mileage seems to vary.
