    Hello Mike!

    18 May 21 15:31, you wrote to me:

    I saw that this morning. When you work for the government, you unfortunately lose some of your freedom of speech. You have to keep
    some things to yourself until you retire.

    Unless you're a liberal that subscribes to the hivemind. Then you can talk politics all day long because that's acceptable.

    Later,

    That is what I was thinking, but not saying.

    Rules are no longer neutral because the people enforcing them have their own ideas. It has been going on for a while already.

    Yes indeed.

    It was like that when I was in the Army in the 90s but it wasn't plainly obvious. People still had a modicum of tact and couth then.

    It isn't just government jobs... Freedom of speech is one of those things that liberals embrace - only if you are saying what they want to hear. Otherwise, you are shuned, evil, racist, and have no freedom.
