I initially misinterpreted the question a bit, and edited it for clarity. I was listing sub-fields where it still is possible to get away with being openly right-wing. Presumably people more to the libertarian end of the spectrum would want to avoid the military industrial complex though.
I lean right (fiscally) and sometimes my comments are perceived as unwelcome in group chats. Such topics include afghanistan, covid statistics, are seemingly discouraged.
Comments talking about how terrible, racist, and sexist the company is are totally cool. In fact creating a woman's right's channel where the whole purpose is to bash our own employer is also cool. @hereing #general with stories about sexism and how it is rampant in society and white males are no problem. But not afghanistan. Not ok. I imagine most people must hate the obnoxious BS but nobody wants to shout back in 2021.
What does that mean lean right fiscally? Traditionally, I believe that means less government spending, but at least in the US, government spending doesn't seem to change significantly under conservative control. In fact, the spending just shifts from people-in-need to people-that-already-have (social programs vs corporate handouts).
Not talking about Afghanistan at work seems reasonable.
I'm not sure what COVID statistics would mean much; the science behind COVID is pretty settled and there's a solid, highly-regarded (including internationally, at least until Trump) government agency that oversees that in the US (CDC); I don't see where discussing those numbers would even be valuable unless the company were flaunting COVID and the workers wanted action. I suppose when you say COVID stats, you might be referring to total nonsense stats, in which case I would agree those should be excluded from company chat.

That's just American politics: you never get what you asked for. I remember Dan Carlin saying something like "No matter who you vote for, you always get John McCain."
You all are lucky, I had a pretty bad reaction from the second dose(pfizer) wiped out for two solid days, started feeling better and then boomerang fatigue hit, a half mile walk would leave me so tired I needed to rest for an hour after. I also had heart issues and as a runner(I run 20-30 miles a week) had to stop for almost 2 weeks. Interestingly enough I have a garmin watch and it showed my v02 max also drop by 10% during that time, Dr's attributed it to the vaccine but couldn't be sure. That being said I'll still get the booster if and when it arrives as I would rather deal with those side effects than severe covid or death.
This should have the citizens mass protesting in the street. DNA and iris samples to get / maintain a phone number.
This biometric data that cell phone users will be forced to turn over to the Government includes; fingerprints of the users; the iris of his eyes, the features of his face (facial recognition data), voice recognition, the signature and the DNA.
I can only speak for the first gen zen. There's a bug with most motherboards that cause a hard lockup every day or so.
Changing the power state fixes the problem with an updated bios but disables boost.

It's possible that nobody was on the bridge. Loads of tankers are driven by autopilot. Additionally, the USN ship wasn't transmitting AIS so they were essentially invisible.
Not sure about the firing squad... people make mistakes, I can certainly see how she was focused on trying to avoid a collision and forgot to sound the alarm. There must have been at least 5 other people on the bridge who could have done it as well.
There were multiple failures that allowed the situation to get this out of hand. Ideally, she would have had forceful backup from the CIC.
Of course it should go up the chain, it should go as high as the people making the tasking to the ship Captains when they know the ships aren't ready to execute. Blaming the crew in this situation is discounting the factors that force the crew to operate like this.

But she was the CO no? Maybe im wrong but isn't it the CO's job to lead? Not just expect the grunts to step and be a leader?
Technically the CO was in bed at the time of the collision. OOD "had the conn" and certainly should not have wrecked the vessel. Still, we could imagine extenuating circumstances that would excuse an OOD's failure. No one ever imagined the CO's career would survive a collision like this.
