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?
I remember one place of employment, if there was list of top 100 woke companies sorted by how often right wingers complain about how woke it is, this company is not low on that list, I just won't say it's name for woke reasons. I'm 100% confident that if any a person of C-Suite there found out my political beliefs, they'd probably slap my name on my next yearly layoff.
I remember my first day, an older male coworker had a plaque on his desk that said "I went to Thailand... for a thing." and was an open libertarian. It's been years and he's still working there.
