tjatjarag nhe?

suddenly a feeling of having my constitutionally protected rights to freedom of expression and association threatened by my need to keep both body and spirit in tact. a communique has just found itself into my work email reminding all staff of my employer that we "may not use the workplace to make statements of a political nature… This includes messages which may create the impression among recipients that they are of a political nature, even if you feel that they are not."

while at work for more than 8 hours in the day are we to pretend we do not inhabit a banana republic i wonder? i am deeply troubled by this request...
