When you take a job, you have a good idea of what behavior can get you fired. You can get fired most places just because. I think it's good to make it clear joining a Nazi club is one of those behaviors that's going to get you fired. All this pussyfooting is encouraging them from these nobodies so the way up to the last president.
Okay but talking about a union is another type of behavior that can get you fired.
I'm just saying it's a can of worms and it will be difficult to draw the line at Nazis alone
You open a can of maggots when you treat nazis with kid gloves. Personally, I don't care about the argument "oh it could happen to us if we're meanies to nazis!"
I agree it's wrong to fire people for organizing a union, but that line doesn't exist to begin with. Companies can and will continue to do that. I don't agree with it, but that's the way it currently is. I'm not sure if it's been established you're not allowed to be a Nazi outside of your typical "behavior not becoming of an XYZcorp employee" that they can use to legally fire you for anything they're want I'm just saying we should make it clear that this specific behavior, joining Nazi clubs, is clearly a valid offense.
Again, 100 percent in agreement with you, but it's not such a slippery slope issue when employees were never anywhere near the top of that slope to begin with, so we may as well hammer it home when we've identified a specific legal but unacceptable behavior.
