Case in point, a Tennessee man is now out of a job after posting an offensive meme of Obama being lynched and suggesting that he’d attend a pay-per-view of said racist event.
The Chatanooga Times Free Press shared in a weekend report that Gary Casper, the former vice president for information technology at Chattanooga-based Transcard, shared the meme to his Facebook page publicly with many online snagging screenshots of the posting.
Transcard officials reached out to the outlet via email and explained that company policy forbids employees from making political statements via social media.
In the era of MAGA-fueled rage and vitriol stirred up by President Donald Trump himself, albeit not as blatantly, has emboldened similar racist attacks and jabs at Obama and his enduring legacy.
