Re: The land of the "free"
I would be inclined to upvote you IF you'd posted you support someone for telling the truth. You are much more likely to be sacked (or cancelled) for telling the truth as Chamath Palihapitiya has done.
Saying "You can sack me if you like, but I'm not apologising for opposing human rights violations" is much more likely to get you a pat on the back or promoted.
Cynical moi?
