On one hand, those posts were way out of line as a professional representative of a company talking to one of their employer's clients.
On the other hand, fuck Nic Chiallan for repeatedly threatening legitimate critics of the US Government with "DoD Lawyers" for using their protected first amendment rights. That's actual government tyranny, or at least a pathetic attempt at such.
Yep, Challan is an absolute POS but that isn't the issue here.
The person took very public shots at not only a client of their company but the host of the event they were at. Once called on it by their boss they doubled down and wouldn't even commit to not doing it again.
From my seat that wouldn't take much if any outside pressure to have them sacked.
For reals. This person sounds insufferable, I would have fired them too.
