    Only bigots are afraid to “speak freely” at work. I speak freely all the time, and at work, you just have to not be marginalising or belittling or degrading someone else while doing it.

      I don’t think that’s even true anymore. After winning the culture war, the bigots definitely seem more embolded to speak freely, at work or otherwise. Despite this, many to this day will express feeling like the powers that be are censoring them even though their political party dominates nearly every aspect of politics and public life.
