> “We support every employee’s right to criticize their employer’s working conditions,” a spokesperson said, “but that does not come with blanket immunity against any and all internal policies.”

What a strange statement. "We support their right to criticize their working conditions, only actually we don't at all"

I don't see anything wrong about that...

Because that is if you don't agree with company policy or whatever company is doing, you should not work there. They should lose all employees and go bust.

In practice I understand one would like to disagree and things should change to better. But life is not that simple, so if you can afford quitting please do so (if you are wealthy enough even in their face saying what they should do better), if you somehow cannot afford that, for the sake of your close ones really put your head down and work your way through... there is nothing bad I could say about such person, those are just circumstances.

That said - for all those assholes that should say something because they have their comfortable position in a company ... fuck them really bad!

That is why I highly regard Snowden, he had comfortable position, yet he went against all of that. If he would be someone oppressed and making barely living wage that would be just a normal thing that someone would like to fight for a better life ....

What if you actually believe in the company and what they do? Does that mean you must support each and every policy that the company instates?

That is a good counter question... I don't have to name people who believed their company was doing the right thing but was in reality setting death camps.

But in reality they (bad guys) were using line workers who could not really make right or wrong because they were not educated on the front line doing atrocities. Fuck you is about people who are educated enough that they could spot slimy stuff (though they were enough removed from bad stuff to not "spot" the bad stuff) but still stick to their comfortable life.
