WTF MY BOSS & SOME COWORKERS KNOW ABOUT THIS SITE (hexbear.net)

my boss said he doesn't personally post here but some others might. and my boss thinks it's cool that I'm a leftist, he's one too, apparently, and that a bunch of our coworkers are leftists. some of them might post here?? it's a finance firm -- the last place I'd expect this. how the fuck do they have a positive opinion of this place??

YOU HAVE TO TELL ME IF YOU POST HERE AND WHAT YOUR @ IS. THIS IS SO UNFAIR LEAVING ME ON THE HOOK LIKE THIS. DON'T MAKE ME POST PPB TO THE WORK SLACK AND SEE WHO LAUGHS.

(I use tree style tabs so they can read my tabs when I share my screen -- I didn't hide this place because who the fuck has heard of hexbear)

Where do I get a cool boss like yours? Mine is neck deep into esoteric fascism and is completely irredeemable, no re-education camp could fix his mush of a brain

My mom's boss is legitimately a Jordon Peterson fan. I honestly thought they didn't exist.

My mom asked me if I knew who Jordon Peterson was and I had to explain the alt right pipeline to her. She said (in reference to her boss), "yeah he's like that lol".

Sadly there are actually quite a lot of JP fans. My brother mentioned to me that practically everyone in his college was alt right JP fan or worse

Uhg gross, I go to a pretty conservative college in the south and I just don't talk to people here tbh. I came here with a couple established friends and have not expanded beyond that because the first person I spoke to somehow managed to tell me within 10 minutes that he didn't think bi people existed, thought homosexuality was gross, and that poor people just needed to work harder. TEN MINUTES! Granted he was a business major so idk what I expected but holy fuck it wasn't that. I didn't even know him, I was just in the dorm kitchen at 3 am and he showed up and started talking to me.
