And the fight continues. The founders were so far down, because basic freedoms for everyone is 0, and we have to fight to get up to that point.

While all that is true, not letting people leave is involuntary servitude, and only the government can do it, and even then only through due process. You have a right to leave your job right now. You can talk to your manager of you want to, but you don't have to do any more work for them.
Same shit as 2016, different venue. A naive implementation of free-speech values says that they should have a chance to talk, but bringing understanding to the mix reveals that they don't also value free speech, and their speech suppresses far more than it promotes.
I think I saw a post about how punk bars have an absolute 0-nazi policy because there isn't a real between a bar with nazis and a nazi bar. Other people will leave, nazis will realize they're safe there.

Before, in the era of free money, you just had to be good at looking shiny to stay afloat, and companies that didn't look shiny got left behind. Now you have to be actually functional.
We've arrived at the future we were borrowing from for the last 15 years.
