Google Can't Seem to Tolerate Diversity
What this whole episode really seems to show is how authoritarianism has crept into our lives and how incredibly difficult it is to resist it even amongst highly educated people.<p>I would wager that none of the people calling for this person to be personally ruined, expelled from society, terminated from their job and forever vilified as an outcast would view themselves as authoritarian.<p>Not the Tweeters shaking with anger and demanding for him to get fired.<p>Not the Ex-Google guy with his medium rant about how people would punch him in the face and he would understand.<p>Not the diversity officer reaffirming the commitment to diversity in a dystopian way.<p>It is scary, it really is. We have all grown up learning about regimes like this, we are all aware, yet seemingly nobody can help themselves.
