2017/08/08: James Damore and his Google Memo on Diversity (Interview)(video only)
YouTube ^ | 8-9-2017 | Jordan B Peterson

In this video, I talk to James Damore and another employee who wishes to remain anonymous about James' memo regarding Google's diversity programs and their overweening ideological basis. He was fired last night. That says everything that needs to be said.

James Damore wrote a memo describing how Google was intolerant of dissenting voices. So, Google decided the best way to disprove his assertion to the world was to fire his dissent-voicing @ss.

I'm just kidding. Google wasn't concerned with disproving anything he wrote; They don't consider such ideas to be worthy of debate.

Liberal hate mongering of free speech. Like government, “we know better” & look at the fine example of Venezuela!

1984 was written as a warning about communism.

I looked on the Google website to find a general email address where I could give them a piece of my mind, but couldn’t find anything like that. Does anyone have a contact email address for Google?

I have always assumed that Google would be a horrible place to work.

7] Communism promised to be both morally and economically superior to capitalism, but every attempt became morally corrupt and an economic failure. As it became clear that the working class of the liberal democracies wasn’t going to overthrow their “capitalist oppressors,” the Marxist intellectuals transitioned from class warfare to gender and race politics. The core oppressor-oppressed dynamics remained, but now the oppressor is the “white, straight, cis-gendered patriarchy.”

“1984 was written as a warning about communism.”

Google executives were of the opinion that if the memo had singled out a racial group rather than women, Mr. Damore’s firing would be more widely supported, the Google spokesman said. “We wouldn’t even be having this discussion.”

...had singled out a racial group...

Exactly. If one’s position on diversity doesn’t match the current orthodoxy, they will do everything to exile you from the profession (at least for Silicon Valley).

With that said, what parts of STEM/Business remain unsullied by leftists? There has to be something that repels them, yet is fine for normal individuals.
