Do I have a right to push up on your wife, daughter, or mother at work? Sticks and stones... Am I right? Can I call her a ****? It's just words. It's obviously in decay, but we live in a society, and we're not supposed to treat each other or behave that way. Thom's life isn't over... He can go get a different ***** job, just like the rest of us do when we get canned at the previous one.
It's not really about right and wrong, I think everyone agrees it was wrong. I suspect the argument is more about does the punishment fit the crime? Not just this situation, but in many others, someone will say something they shouldn't and it will be recorded, and the next thing you know the "crowd" wants that person to never be able to earn a living doing anything again, when sometimes what was said could be corrected with an apology or suspension. I'm not entering into this conversation as far as this situation, just the overall topic of cancelling people.
And another thing. The Reds need to change their name because it is a slur against Communism that was widely used in the 600's through the 80's.
