I'm not a Republican. I'm not a Democrat. I'm an independent voter.
I happened to mention to a colleague at work that I liked trump three months ago and didn't realize that colleague told EVERYBODY I work with.
I got fired yesterday. I was told by my employer that the reason I was getting fired is "we don't tolerate racism here."
It took me a little while to get over the shock, but now I'm really fucking mad about it.
Can I sue my former employer?

It's a private business
The owners can fire whoever for whatever reasons.
Yes. Sue the shit out of them. Get yourself a good jew lawyer.
nope, they can fire you for whatever reason they like, thank Republicans
Shoulda voted boine sandlez if you wanted a party that gives a fuck about wage slave and salary men lmao
Yes. Burden of proof is on the employer as to the reason you were fired.
"Voting for someone I didn't like" is definitely not a valid reason.
Talk to a lawyer or five.
What is a protected class?
Most jobs have an 'at will' policy.
Meaning they can fire you 'at will'.
Look in their handbook if you still have it.
Not necessarily. Even in right to work states employers are still liable in many cases. Most companies will avoid firing you without lots of documentation for this very reason. My wife is a lawyer and sued the US Post office for reverse discrimination case against a white guy once and won big league.
You could in Australia.
