Netflix employees are reportedly planning a walkout in protest at Netflix's decision to release The Closer.

According to the Los Angeles Times, Netflix employee resource group Trans* is urging its members and allies to walk out for a day next week. "I encourage all [members of] Trans* and allies not to work for Netflix that day," reads a reported Slack message sent to hundreds of Netflix staff. "As we’ve discussed through Slack, email, texts and everything in between, our leadership has shown us that they do not uphold the values for which we are held."

Honestly, why do people hire activists? If a resume ever comes across my desk with their pronouns on it, it’s immediately going into the trash no matter how qualified they are for the job. I have a first name that can be a girl’s name as well, so who gives a shite?

So one employee is planning a walkout and hoping others join him. Hopefully none do and his butt hurt arse will just go away.

Good. And I hope when they return there is a new employee sitting at their desks.

Funny they will walk out over a joke, but find nothing wrong with child porn in Cuties.

Even though I know it's about money, I'm glad Netflix is standing up to this shite.

I find it ironic as F that the response from the Trans community (and supporters) is what it is for this special.

Either they didn't watch it till the very end (or not at all) or they are that dense, which I find even that hard to believe.

Good. That way you can figure which ones to fire. And then hire sane people.

Yeah you are just asking for problems down the line hiring someone like that. They will eventually get offended about something.

Dear tranny employees. We only need aboot 3% of you. The 3 % are named below. for the rest, if you do not show up, we will miss you permanently.

The 3% that are actually needed will be replaced also. We would like you to show up, but rest assured, the clown show is over. No more men wearing dresses. Any men in the women's bathroom will be arrested. We tried the lunatic way, but are through. We are, after all, a business, with money to be made. To give away millions so a group of lunatics does not get butthurt was never within the realm of possibility.

Good luck in your future, lesser, endeavors.
