Being made an example because you see and do things differently

@FreerangerBusinesses and bosses do not own the workers to the extent of making an example of those who don't have the same political, religious or basic ideals. You can do your job and not agree with politics and all that others around you seem to share.

@Freeranger Again, you made no mention of anything political, religious, or anything else. I responded based on the information your first put out.
I would agree that neither businesses or bosses have a right to impinge on your beliefs, that is your right. Certainly, they have no right to make an example of you for any of those.
However, that said, if we're talking about your job and when you're on the clock, your political and religious beliefs should be shared with a sense of decorum. If you are being really overt, then your employer has every right to request that you curtail that. You have a right to those opinions, but your fellow employees have just as much right not to hear it---unless they request it, and say you're in the break room or whatever on a scheduled break.

Off the clock, different ballgame. I think that's a far better time and place.

@Freeranger I will give you one instance... it wasn't me but it DID happen...
A young woman aged 18-19 worked in a hospital lunch room/cafeteria serving food on the line. She was asked if she was getting a flu shot and she said she was not. She was forced to wear a face mask and a pin that basically said people should ask about it for what was considered the whole flu season. She was ridiculed, called stupid and it was done to make her feel bad... maybe in hopes she'd fall in line.

@SW-User I think any among us knows that is wrong. It's one thing to be asked to mask up, but wholly another when she has to wear a pin OR be ridiculed.
That is harassment in the workplace, and those responsible need to be reported.
