I agree that you shouldn't have to worry about that.

I think people also shouldn't have to worry about losing their job or being pushed aside if they just want to do work and not kneel down with people, or raise their fists, or recite loyalty oaths to certain causes. Some people just want to come to work and do work and go home, and that should be allowed too.

I hope we can find a compromise where neither person needs to worry. I think that is what Basecamp is making an honest attempt at here.



If that’s the goal you want, I hope we agree then that this kind of policy isn’t a good way to achieve it because of the really large potential for collateral damage.

Like sure - you can kill an ant with a hand grenade, but is that the best tool for the job?
