There is another problem.

Google fired this guy, which was the right thing to do. Sending your coworkers an 8 page dissertation on why you think they don’t deserve their jobs is a cry to be fired. Even if you are right, you’re deliberately pissing on the community you’re supposed to work with.

But the reaction on the Right is incredible. The same people who support the idea that your employer can fire you for being gay think it’s oppressive to fire a guy who broadly declares to his female coworkers that he has no faith in their abilities.

And this actually makes a weird sort of sense. What he wrote was so strange and unnecessarily long in its offensiveness, it’s like he wanted to get fired. To get martyred. To generate propaganda against the idea of google being unbiased against conservatives.

And that’s terrifying.
