工作在品牌中:企业如何破坏言论自由
Josh Bornstein asks how our major corporations have come to exercise repressive control over the lives of their employees, and explores what can be done to repair the greatest threat to democracy — the out-of-control corporation.
When you go to work, you agree to exchange your labour in exchange for your pay packet, right? Actually, you may not realise it, but you are also selling your rights to free speech and to participate in democracy. Welcome to corporate cancel culture, a burgeoning phenomenon that is routinely ignored in debates about free speech. If you work for a large company, it will not allow you to say or do anything that harms its brand — at or outside work. If you transgress and attract controversy — whether for cracking a joke, a Facebook like, or a political post on TikTok, you can be shamed, sacked, and blacklisted.
In the twenty-first century, major corporations have become the most powerful institution in the world — more powerful than many nations. That unchecked, anti-democratic power is reflected in the gaming of the political system, the weakening of governments, and the repressive control of the lives of employees. While their behaviour has deteriorated, corporations have invested heavily in ethically washed brands, claiming to be saving the planet and doing good. As Josh Bornstein argues, we would not tolerate a government that censored, controlled, and punished us in this way, so why do we meekly accept the growing authoritarianism of the companies that we work for?
Josh Bornstein询问为什么我们的主要企业已经发展到能够在其员工的生活上实施压制性的控制,并探讨了如何修复对民主最大威胁——失控的企业。 当你去上班时,你同意用你的劳动力换取你的工资单,是吗?实际上,你可能未曾意识到,你也卖掉了你享有言论自由和参与民主的权利。欢迎来到企业式抹黑文化,这是一种正在兴起的现象,在关于言论自由的辩论中被普遍忽视。如果你在大型公司工作,它将不允许你在工作中或工作之外做任何伤害其品牌的事情。如果你越线并引起争议——无论是因为一个笑话、一个Facebook点赞还是 TikTok上的政治帖子——你可以受到羞辱、解雇和黑名单。 在21世纪,主要企业已经成为了世界上最强大的机构之一——比许多国家都要强大。这种不受监管的反民主权力反映在政治制度的操纵中,政府力量的削弱,以及对员工生活的压制控制上。尽管它们的行为有所恶化,但公司投入了大量的道德净化品牌建设,声称自己正在拯救地球并做善事。正如Josh Bornstein所指出的那样,在这种方式下对待我们显然是不能接受的政府行为,那么我们为何又默默接受了在为我们工作的企业中日益增长的 authoritarianism?
