Making fun of a customer’s name is considered rude, but does it set employees on the road to genocide? That’s the ridiculous assertion that resulted in Chicago software firm Basecamp banning political debate from the workplace.

CEO Jason Fried, in this conversation with Sam Harris, says a third of his workforce quit as a result. Fried still believes that work is not the place for “debating the most complex issues of the day”. In fact he says, “Work makes it incredibly hard to have conversations like this.”

If we don’t proselytize about religion, at work, and force people to take sides, why do we tolerate doing that with social issues? And why are so many mega-companies playing into woke demands to take sides.
