Don't become corporate flunkies or toadies

Summary: The rogue employers like to frame everything that's not convenient as "false" or even libelous/defamatory/slanderous; what's actually libelous/defamatory/slanderous is those employers making such accusations against staff that says the truth (verifiable facts) in an effort to discredit such staff
