Really lame. No president should encourage the boycotting of an American company for person or political biases to the detriment of American workers.

No political party operatives should encourage the boycotting of an American company for personal or political biases to the detriment of American workers. Something progressives have done in spades...

40+ years in industry and never were political shirts allowed. I appreciate the link to the story and if I needed tires they would be Goodyear based on principles of no political advertising in their plants.

The Democrats should have a hat in hand point to it and say "Now that you have failed to make America Great Again We will clean up your mess and make Make America Proud Again. MAPA


BLM is about as racist and political as you can get.

Only to those that wish to keep blacks in a subservient position. Why is it that white Republicans are so bent out of shape about blacks wanting to be equal to whites? Do you feel threatened by equality?

They are not. That’s just the appearance that progressives want to portray.

If you look at the entire history of the democrat party it is they who wish to keep blacks on the plantation.
They fought a war to keep them on the plantation, they passed Jim Crow laws to keep them down and now they use the welfare state to keep blacks suppressed. And if a black wants to compete in the world democrats tell them they are too stupid to make it on their own so they invented affirmative action, quotas etc. to let blacks know they are less capable and qualified but will get a position or entrance to a college anyway.
Conservatives believe all people are equal and should have equal opportunity to succeed or fail per their individual efforts. And should not be held back by the democrats and their racist laws limiting blacks.
As to being threatened by equality(Blacks) I will ask my family if I am threatened by them.

Because Goodyear is telling employees that they can ONLY support and express support for far left radical political positions at work but in no way can express support for America and conservative values or get fired as the person who leaked this information. He was fired and is now suing Goodyear for wrongful termination.
This has been confirmed now by multiple sources and the fired employee has been in the news personally showing the picture he took at the employee meeting where they were threatened if they expressed any pro American or conservative value at work and there was a list of radical hate America and hate police values that can be expressed at work and is encouraged to do so.

You seem to have a lot in common with the Tin man, except, at least he was looking for one.

And BLM attire is NOT political or highly controversial?
But being in support of law enforcement is controversial and political according to Goodyear.
Goodyear published a very specific list and it banned anything supporting police or anything pro America but encouraged BLM or left wing nut as non political and just fine.


Are you sure you immigrated? Or, did Mexico kick you across the border?

As someone who was in charge of Employee Handbooks, I applaud GoodYear for trying to keep peace at work. Nothing kills productivity more than a hostile work environment and injecting politics into any environment (even religious ones) creates hostility.

The real question is why do you support fascist economic policy where the party can tell industry which causes their employees may or may not support?


Where is your evidence that "the party" did, or even could do, that? It's easy to convince people what they already believe. You don't seem too big on changing anyone's mind.

To reply to you in any way that even approaches rational without appearing mean has become impossible.

Yes, they do. But, they aren’t a protected group under our equal rights laws. By their admission, GoodYear’s policy is rooted in equity issues. Maybe the current social pressure will change that.

Protected classes are how federal law conceptualizes protections against discrimination. The understanding of the classes may continue to evolve, either incrementally through courts or through federal legislation. Societal responses to new issues of discrimination generally start the process.
