When I worked at a big box store for years I wasn't allowed to wear my BLM shirt or anything "political" but my Trumper coworkers got away with wearing their Trump shirts or Let's Go Brandon shirts, and they even put Let's Go Brandon stickers up all aroubd the employee facing areas. If you told managers about it they addressed it as a dress code violation and regarded you as a snitch.
So what stopped you wearing your BLM shirt?
Like fuck you very much for implying that I don't believe black lives matter? When I literally just described the repression of political speech in the workplace I faced?
You chose to write it on the internet. I didn't expect you to get upset at a basic question.
All I wanted to know was how they stopped you when other people were allowed to wear political clothing. I'm not implying anything.
