It sometimes depends on what you've learned (or been taught) compared to what you need to learn. "Washing your laundry IN PUBLIC" has long been considered (and advertised) as a bad idea. In most organizations (public, private, even government) there are protocols available to handle disagreements WITHIN THE ORGANIZATION.

Yes, we are very fortunate, that here, we are able to, pretty much say whatever we want whenever we choose to. That doesn't guarantee we can do so without consequences, which often turn out to be a lot harsher than anticipated, and can cause deeper "self inflicted" wounds than anticipated.

We enjoy "Free Speech", not a "Free Ride"and it's always a smart idea to know what the fare might be BEFORE choosing to board.
