I work for an insurance company and every all employee meeting we hear about the desire to fight systematic oppression, what we are doing to combat that, and how we can promote diversity. The CEO even worried about how we don't have a good diversity of thought and how we need to make people more comfortable being themselves. But throughout the whole meeting it's heavily implied that conservative voices aren't wanted. He even made a comment that implied trump is a joke. Not to mention we won't go back to the office until 2021. Just needed to vent where people will get me.

Edit: just made it a bit more vague so i don't accidently dox myself. I trust you guys, but i'd rather be careful.

It's the same at my place (mortgage servicing). Avoid political discussions, but be cordial and polite.

I have met a few that seem tired of it all too. They just want to work and not have this shoved down their throat.

Start networking and getting your name out there at least to get ahead of the hiring rush that will eventually happen. These companies will fail to realize why they lose their best people when they push this garbage of diversity/inclusion and other nonsense, until its too late.

The team that sat next to mine (when we were in the office) very loudly spoke about their left wing politics. Wish i had that freedom.
