The Absurd GOP

[Sheldon]

The stuff that is happening isn't unreasonable or bad he just doesn't like it.

I am convinced all devout atheists are secretly Muslims, 

What a spectacularly stupid claim, assuming it's not just an attempt tp troll of course. 

no other group would be so socially comfortable saying, "Women being sexually assaulted and killed isn't unreasonable or bad" 

Straw man fallacy, and now I see it is an attempt to troll. Be a dear and link your peer reviewed research that this belief is held by a significant amount of atheists? I am an atheist, and I certainly would view sexual assualt and murder as bad or immoral, whomever the victim was. 

or, "People should be fired for offending me by insulting my prophet, the rainbow."

Now that I think about it, they are quite comfortable being so open with their racism as well.

Interesting.

Two more straw men, and the trolling keeps on coming. I also disagree, this kind of jeuvenile trolling is the polar opposite of interesting. Atheists by definition can't be Muslims, they can't have prophets either, and even as a metaphor this is poorly reasoned. It's just another transparent attempt to promot religious bigotry and intollerance, and then liken objections by those who don't share such prejudices to a religion, which is something of an irony overload on its own. 

Now what might be interesting is to examine the way you're projecting here, but from your posts I don't think honest introspection is something you'd be interested in.

That one's as sharp as a bowling ball.

Everyone is free to say what they want. but actions, including speech, have consequences. The exercise of any right comes with the risk of infringing, or even just upsetting, others. We are all accountable for the choices we make.

The youngling has much to learn.

The troll has resorted to shitposting, not worth to engage him in any meaningful way. But yea, i also suspect he got fired for harassing a co worker, and now is trying to compensate for on this forum. Really sad to see.

(my bold)

It hasn't been worth engaging since it's first appearance. That why I stopped early.

[TheWhiteMarten]

Nope, but I swear I've been to my local Klan rally and there were less people obsessed with skin color than you people.

“Less people obsessed with skin color” 

Less people sounds like your Klan became Woke, huh?

They just ain't the skinheads I use to know.

(Since apparently it's required, /s...)

Funny, that's precisely why I switched to one-sentence posts for most of you. Good to know we are all on the same page now then.

Why?

The fact you even need to ask why bosses should not  tolerate bigotry in the workplace says it all really

Actually, this could be interesting.

So if you overheard someone making racist remarks at work, what would your course of action be?

[The Grand Nudger]

Is that the actual hill you came here to die on? The firmly held belief that we ought to be a little more accepting of white supremacists in the workplace. It's a conversation we can have if you can abandon all the pretense. That requirement is just a practical concern. If we want to discuss being more tolerant of racists that particular discussion will be repeatedly side-railed whenever we deign to pretend it's about any other thing.

We'd have to be bold enough to say what we mean, and mean what we say. Can we do that?

[TheWhiteMarten]

I am truly flattered you think I am making a sacrifice.

[The Grand Nudger]

Can we do that? Did you come here to bullshit people or speak your mind?

Either tell them to stop, or, if that fails, report them to HR or the boss?
