> But the jabs at Robox employees for furry-adjacent follows on Twitter, and another for retweeting some fan art that happened to be from a problematic account, are totally random and unfounded - what's that got to do with anything?

It's one thing to watch/engage with this stuff privately in your personal life. It's quite another thing to have:

>> Roblox’s former social media manager ran a public pornographic blog with “furry porn” and photos of himself

And

>> Roblox’s official verified Twitter account retweeted content from “DukeButDuke” with #FanArtFriday.

> jabs at Robox employees for furry-adjacent follows

This is Roblox's public representatives at a high level in the company publicly promoting this stuff. Put another way, if you posted a blog article about furry porn and pictures of yourself nude, then prominently displayed it next to your public work profile, do you honestly think that your company would have no right to fire you? There's a reason lots of bloggers that work for big companies will put "this blog and these ideas have no affiliation with company X" disclaimers everywhere, and that's just for semi controversial blogging topics.
