That's not exactly what I meant. I meant that more than one person has expressed to me that they can work with Brendan as long as they don't discuss politics, because some of Brendan's views (not even referring to his views on marriage equality) are so far outside the mainstream and they didn't want to argue about it.

Having to talk to someone with power over you who holds views you find unpleasant and/or illogical isn't as bad as being retaliated against for disagreeing, but I can still see why it would make someone not want to bring up the subject of marriage equality, or how other people would react to Brendan's views on it, at all.
