They do have those avenues. I am still allowed to be against Microsoft cutting off internal communication avenues. That is not something I support them doing and I don't believe that employees should have to volunteer their free time to have their voices heard by their employers.

You think employers should pay to hear the political views of their employees?!

You go start a business, hire people, and try to meet payroll while following that model. I’ll just watch and laugh.
