To every liberal government body, this is how you fight fascism.
Ffs...there are school board members who are being forcibly retired due to messages on social media.
so... when you're a government employee you are supposed to uphold yourself with decorum that implies that you will treat all your constituents evenly and fairly. that extends to social media. elected officials and appointed officials are held to a different standard with i'm not 100% up on anymore because i've only ever been employee or appointed, but it is important to at very least project an image of fairness.
now, in statesia have public servants from one major party been generally striving to uphold these values in the past, let's say decade or seven, while public servants from the other major party have been flaunting every opportunity they get to violate said norms whenever they feel they can get away with it, and using the legal system to punish their employers for proper dismissals when they their violate employment contracts? Well, it sure feels that way sometimes. like today.
I feel like if the President of the country isn't held to any standards whatsoever, it's disingenuous to suggest that people who hold lesser elected offices should be held accountable for treating "all constituents evenly and fairly."
it's fucked up, isn't it.
