I have just entered a high-powered industry. For sure, one of the ONLY things that could get me fired at this stage is speaking out at a DIE training. The other thing is speaking out against woke idiocy at a work outing. Everyone else is allowed to whine about a lack of non-gendered bathrooms or how people aren't using the right woke words (like partner instead of boyfriend/girlfriend, despite this being VERY confusing). I have to just grin and nod, despite this kind of thing happening in a friendly, alcohol-infused environment, where one might be otherwise expected to be able to at least offer an authentic opinion. It is highly toxic and sickening.
