He was not discussing "work conditions". Work conditions would be his hours or wages. Not his opinion of how executives have decided to run the company. If he was discussing the impact that their choices had on HIS work, that would be different. He was just complaining about the impact to the company. That isn't "working conditions".
He was not discussing his political opinions. Criticizing the hiring practices of your company and the values they attach to their hiring IS NOT your protected political opinion. It is a direct critique of your employer.
If your employer promoted "green energy" and you said "green energy is a bunch of bullshit crap", you aren't expressing your political opinion. You are criticizing your employer. Even though some political parties hold this opinion, you are directing it at your employer.
Affirmative Action IS ILLEGAL in California. For the GOVERNMENT. It is illegal for the state of California to mandate affirmative action or for any government-run agency to enact affirmative action. It isn't illegal for private companies to promote ethnically-diverse workplaces, as long as they do not violate the Civil Rights Act.
Your third point is bullshit and meaningless.
