Considering how many groups have taken on the V for Vendetta Guy Fawkes mask as one of their own symbols, that employee could have gotten fired for any number of reasons.

[โ€“] tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 30 points 11 months ago (1 children)

All of them valid, though.

[โ€“] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 31 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Oh I wouldn't go that far. White supremacists use that symbol too.

[โ€“] fogstormberry@lemmy.blahaj.zone 47 points 11 months ago (2 children)

i thought they meant all the firing reasons valid... until i read the username

[โ€“] Jonny@kbin.social 14 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I assumed the same as you, but I feel I am going to show my ignorance. What about the user name changed your mind?

[โ€“] De_Narm@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (2 children)

Anonymous is a hacker group associated with the mask. At least that's the only thing I could come up with regarding the username.

[โ€“] ignotum@lemmy.world 23 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Lol, "Tacos anonymous" is more likely a joking reference to "alcoholics anonymous" that to the hacker group

[โ€“] Zehzin@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

I feel like the only thing that will clear this out is if tacos anonymous clarifies wether or not they're racist

[โ€“] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 11 months ago

Assume innocence or something

[โ€“] AnonTwo@kbin.social 5 points 11 months ago

To be fair, it's also just the word for someone you don't have a name for.

Easy name to pick when you can't think of a username after dozens of "name already taken" prompts

[โ€“] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Ah, I thought they meant the exact opposite. But I can see that now.

[โ€“] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Which is wild because how anyone can read anything white supremacist out of something even based of an Alan Moore comic is wild.

[โ€“] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago

They have almost certainly not read the comic. Probably didn't even see the film. It's like all of the cops who use Punisher logos because they're not aware that Frank Castle absolutely detests cops.

[โ€“] VaultBoyNewVegas@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

I'd say it's the same people who believe Rorschach is a good guy.

[โ€“] Zoboomafoo@lemmy.world 18 points 11 months ago (1 children)

They wanted to bomb Parliament

[โ€“] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 7 points 11 months ago

They were Catholic and their boss is Henry VIII

[โ€“] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 103 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Only took them 3 minutes too! Must be a small company or the world's most effective HR department!

[โ€“] dopeshark@lemmy.world 47 points 11 months ago (12 children)

Maybe he shouted a very specific word, that one that begins with a N

[โ€“] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 36 points 11 months ago

Nantucket? I heard there once was a man from there..

[โ€“] ReCursing@kbin.social 26 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I don't think he is a knight who says "NI!"

I once got a temporary ban from one of the larger subreddits for calling someone a nincompoop. It was considered "abusive" language. At least that's what the mods said. I suspect it was more to do with me having an unpopular opinion though obviously I can't prove it.

[โ€“] Ragdoll_X@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I too hate Naturwissenschaft

[โ€“] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

My least favorite subject in the Danish equivalent of high school and one of the other classes was Latin!

No, he was saying "that" in Mandarin
