It actually had been running rather politely for many months without incident. And then ... it seems everyone in the company stopped what they were doing to start yelling at each other about politics in the online forum today. Nasty, nasty stuff. That PETA thing was but a small and incidental part, really, except that it annoyed me that the poster thought himself so clever, sharing some old bit of dopeyness I've seen a million times, at least.

Where I work (absolutely in the bastion of Corporate America) one has to be VERY careful about making any kinds of political statements lest someone else files a complaint on them creating a "hostile workplace". Not to belittle the importance of the right to work in an environment free of hostility - but some folks out there will jump on ANY opportunity to file that on someone else. So generally - especially in our litiginous society - it's better safe than sorry. And in my workplace, at least, you bring up this kind of discussion at the peril of your own continued employment.
