Fired from AT&T for having conservative views
Yesterday on the Glenn Beck show Glenn interviewed a Cuban who had come up to this country when he was young. The fellow had been fired from AT&T after 16 years on the job for his view on American Blacks which he had expressed in an email to a relative (a lady). The lady was angered by his opinion because it didn’t agree with her own politically correct one (that the Blacks are a downtrodden, oppressed race; victims of white prejudice; people deserving infinite sympathy whose problems are all caused by Whites) and in righteous indignation sent a copy of it to his employer, AT&T. The views he expressed in his email were none other than my own (and those of most conservative white people). They called him into the office, showed him a copy of the email, and fired him. They told him his views were not consistent with those of the company. The decision apparently came from higher up because no one had talked to his immediate boss or any of his coworkers. I will make the guess that the person who did it was some indignant liberal White, quite possibly a woman, from one of our Ivy League colleges — a person who had been indoctrinated into all of the politically correct assumptions, narratives, analyses, and attitudes of the Liberal Left. Anyway the lady who had sent them the email heard about what had happened and sent AT&T another email trying to undo what she had done but to no avail. The fellow has talked to a number of law firms about his case and no one has been willing to take it. He has two children and is not eligible for unemployment compensation (because he was fired). AT&T thus messed up the life of a good, decent, deserving person real well. Now that really upsets me! I have been thinking about it ever since — laid awake half of the night last night thinking about it. It is really shocking, upsetting. That is what this country has come to. That is America today. The wicked rule and the Good are oppressed. People are being fired from their jobs just because their opinions on things don’t correspond to the politically correct ones of the Liberal Left. If you don’t agree with the ideas of the Left on the topics of homosexuality, gay marriage, Black oppression, police brutality, etc. then in their eyes that makes you are a hater, a racist, a bigot, a bad person — and you deserve to be fired. That is their mentality. We don’t live in a Leftist dictatorship and yet, because of the power of the liberal mass media and its ability to shape attitude and outlook, to mold the mind of the masses, our country is remarkably like one. I recently heard that a lady who grew up in Communist Romania and is now living in the USA said that she had felt freer to express her opinion in communist Romania than she does here in this country. It is scary. It is a moral and intellectual sickness. Things just don’t look good at all to me in this country. I sit around wondering what other country I could move to. And this situation is not isolated just to the United States. The same thing is going on in Great Britain, Canada, Australia, etc. — all over the English speaking and politically correct western world. It is scary!
I will repeat what I have said before. Liberalism is evil! It is straight from Satan himself. It is like an evil, fanatical religion! These people have been brainwashed! This religion has affected the ability of its devotees to think and reason. It is a religion that muddles brains! And it stands in high conflict with Christianity (true Christianity).
Liberalism starts with its own assumptions on what causes bad human behavior, wrong behavior. The Leftists say it is the environment that is the cause, the system that is the cause. Thus the individual is not at fault, can’t be blamed. Their solution: Marxism, Communism. They want to take us down the same road that Lenin took Russia and Chairman Mao took China.
