If you want to know who really has the power in this world just see how no one in public is allowed to speak on certain things, whether they are MPs in parliament, guests on TV, or otherwise. If I questioned Hamas "slaughtering 1400 Israeli civilians" in public or with coworkers, or worse yet, said you get what you deserve, I would 100% lose my job, and probably ruin my highly specialised career.
So presumably everyone else has to do a lot of sef-censorship as well?
My only real worry is that I won’t be able to get security clearance that might be necessary for some lab jobs working for the government. The acceptable range of political views in my field ranges from “What Biden claimed to be in 2020” to “Let the streets run red with the blood of the bankers”
I usually just say "I like to think in am independent thinker and I try not to label myself."
Yeah I'm a centrist (ML's and anarchists both make good points)
My go-to line when in good company
