10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
Let me just state the obvious: They fired her due to the current US administration. She got harassed in the first place because of the current US administration.
Trump is effecting corporate decisions without even making in specific executive orders as well bolstering the common rightwing individual's boldness in harassing people.
Just like Imane Khelif, the female boxer, who IS cisgender. I guess she didn’t look female enough for some people.
Haven't set foot in a Walmart in years...
Several reasons I refuse to do business with them.
This is just affirming some of those reasons.
Fuck Walmart.
🙄 🤡 🖕 🖕
Not saying anything positive about the company, but just to add context: they have invited her back with back pay, but she is hesitant to do so fearing a hostile work environment.

What ever happened to people just minding their own business?
Seriously, just help when you can and but out otherwise. EASY peasy recipe for a better life.
It’s almost like “Ignorance is bliss” got mixed into “intolerance is better” somewhere along the way.
What a fucking chode that guy is.
These fucking Conservatives desperately need to have their fucking heads kicked in. They're fucking apes; they don't understand anything else.
Get strapped. These emboldened bully fucks will get worse if they continue to be met without resistance
Walmart appeared to acknowledge the error in a statement released to the media.
“We want our associates to feel safe and supported in their workplace, and we won’t tolerate bullying or threats of violence against our associates or customers,” Walmart spokesperson Joe Pennington said in a statement. “We’ve reviewed the situation and will be addressing it internally. We’ve also made multiple attempts to invite Ms. Davis to return to work, with back pay.”
For once in my life I'd like to see one of companies respond in the same way that got them in the situation in the first place. Like if Walmart just responded, "lol fuck you idc" it would actually make me less angry than this bullshit.
The company does not have your best interest in mind, ever. I'm going to guess the supervisor she opened up to is going to get fired now for not reporting or something.
My goodness. this poor woman. Man. People suck a lot nowadays.
It's a very specific group of people who suck like this, and they think they're the heroes of the story.
