Don’t stand up for what you believe in because corpos don’t like it.
Shark Tank star Kevin O’Leary still trying to distract from close association to FTX.
Also, he says that like future employers will care… and that all of us don’t have awful pictures out there that aren’t equally problematic.
And from saying everyone does fraud like trump when it comes to property valuations
Like Kevin knows jack shit.
Unlike the NAtional ZIonists who wore masks to assault them.
Who was driving the boat Kevin?
The question that should haunt him the rest of his life.
I need to know more context for this
A: Yeah! How fucked up is that?
Kevin O’Leary: Oh, no, I was saying it’s a good thing
A: … What?
Kevin O’Leary: What?
The protestors should include this civil engagement on their resumes. Find employers that agree with their stance against genocide.
Any company that would go out of their way like this to exclude candidates who stand up for what they believe in and be on the right side of history is not a place that any of these protesters would want to work for anyway. I can’t imagine anyone besides the extreme far right wanting to work for such companies.

That’s going to be hard when the government makes it illegal for companies that take federal money to boycott, divest, sanction, and now even criticize Israel. Just hiring someone with that on their resume could be a problem.
To which i say, can’t he drop dead already?
Blacklisting people for exercising their first amendment rights is going to get you sued.
The first amendment prevents the government from restricting your speech. It doesn’t say anything about other organizations.
Exactly. Historically the left cancel culture has been in the private sector, which is protected. A company can fire you for saying racist shit, and you can be shunned by your community as they are individuals exercising their right to shun.
Right wing cancel culture exists in Congress and local governments, where they pass laws to silence teachers, make it illegal for trans people to exist, and send the national guard to beat up protesters.
This is an instance where a left wing group may experience the other side of the former.
what?
What?

Am I wrong?
wut?
Brother did you know it’s currently a crime in the United States of America to be a government employee and identify openly as a communist?
Question (for anyone who knows the answer), lots of universities and other orgs get federal money. Could this make first amendment more applicable?
That depends if they’re state or private universities. Private universities, like businesses, create codes of conduct more restrictive than constitutional rights as part of agreement for admission. Willful violation of the code of conduct is grounds for dismissal.
Happens all the time though, authorities don’t give a shit
There are 50 states, at least one of them will not look kindly on this. It is easy to tie your anti war protest to religious believes, a protected class.
Smart companies don’t fuck around with hiring. Anyone that has taken hiring training knows how thin the line is.
Your search history on a corporate network is logged.
Free speech doesn’t apply to employees at work.
You mean like AI identifies papers worn by AI? Like the US Constitution?
Is this news tho?
O’Leary likes to insert himself into everything he possibly can.
So no, it’s not news per se.
protests in full fursuit
I have defeated your AI.
Good thing I don’t care about Kevin O’Leary.
Things like this continue to show how people don’t understand AI at all. Facial recognition does not work to this degree, it isn’t a 1:1. The way employers would know is through police records.
You just need to look at all the false police arrests around facial recognition systems and the like to know that you can’t get that level of fidelity.
Whenever Kevin O’leary says anything, everything comes into context if you know how he got to be as rich as he is today.
The short version of the story is Kevin O’leary destroyed the entire educational game industry by buying everyone out and took on massive amount of debt, misrepresented his company’s financial condition so Mattel was left holding the bag when they acquired The Learning Company in what was called one of the worst acquisitions in history, was subsequently fired and almost took down Mattel with him, and he has been coasting on that money he took from Mattel ever since.
This has lead directly to the resignation of then Mattel CEO Jill Barad, the woman who made Barbie what it is today.
I find it incredibly ironic for him, of all people, to be talking about conducting employment background checks.
Great name for a Barbie and Mattel related comment.
I mean, clearly she did her research for that movie.
Would you expect anything less from esteemed Academy Award nominated character actress Margot Robbie?
