Reporting people who aren't even your co-worker and trying to get them fired is ridiculous. What's next, back to Mcarthyism, getting people into relocation camps for not having your same exact views? Yes, those are extreme next steps and a hyperbole on my part, but the more people push stuff like the OP did the more we are moving towards a very scary world. It seems like the majority of people are happy the dude might get fired just because he is a Trump supporter.
Also, the first pic was in very poor taste but wasn't exactly racist. The 2nd pic he posted was more disgusting IMO, why the hell are you even going to this guy's Facebook in the first place since it sounds like you aren't even Facebook "friends" with him?
Well be honest, most people saying they are happy are saying so because of the racist imagery, not so much Trump. Although one poster and I had some exchanges on page 8 about Trump supporters/employment.
The only thing now I'm still waiting on is for the OP to clarify whether it's a private or public FB page, as I do have moral issue with private profile content being sent to an employer who has no means to normally view said content without permission. That is an overarching principal, not something unique to this asshole. Employers shouldn't have more access to your life than you are willing to share in person or publicly, whatever the content is. From status updates to pictures to x. It is an invasion of privacy, however for the 20th time, you are responsible for the shit you put on the internet. Still if it's a private profile and people in this topic who have been quick to congratulate the OP with the minimal information provided don't at least consider privacy from work/employment then yes, I'll be a bit worried about the attitudes of some in this topic (I can empathise with the outrage and conclude the guy is an asshole, but privacy is not something to take lightly). If it's public my earlier advice still stands for the OP and his conscious, and in regards to the work finding out it's just tough luck if the profile is fully public.
If the above has zero thought put into it, then what is next? Everyone and anyone emailing otherwise private profile shit to peoples work just to try and get a reaction? Drunk photos? Pictures of people high? Snide statuses about customer service/where they work? (people blow off steam sometimes you know... even although they pretend in work it's the best job ever) Privacy does need to be respected, even for assholes, and yes even on social media if someone has a private profile you have been granted access to. Which is why reporting tools exist and although we've discussed FBs lack of action, as I said on the last page that is on them. FB is a private company that has to be held accountable for enforcing their T&C, and citizens shouldn't just charge off for vigilante justice every time they come across an asshole online and are worried/impatient about FB sorting it out.
Lastly if the profile was public and then the guy made it private after the complaint, whatever was public once is still fully
public knowledge. That's mainly because the content poster knew his/her profile was public at the time of the content being posted. The potential difference here is the poster not knowing someone they have added is cataloging their otherwise privacy restricted content and sending it off without their permission to an employer. There is some nuance to privacy, especially online. Anyway, I'm at least hoping the OP can give me a definitive answer on this, for my own curiosity.
