Not sure how reliable this is, but a realtor friend of mine had a
colleague who got fired from the realtor company because of a remark
made IIRC on Facebook (or one of those social media things) about his
personal values that somebody in power in the company didn't agree with.

Not every employer cuts you slack the way we net-savvy people expect
reasonable people would. Personally, I think this kind of occurrence is
relatively rare, but still, it's very real.
