If he wanted to be taken seriously, he should have cited sources for those observations.

If Comrade Engineer really wanted to be taken seriously, he ought to have simply resigned with honor and notice and his CV intact, and just gone right on with his career and his life. But the arrogant coward instead has to try and make notoriety for himself as the most boring and dubious figure out of the Cold War, as a “dissident.”

What did he really think was to be gained or achieved, for a loyal card-carrying member of The Party to stand up in its face and say “I personally don’t approve of….”? Had the man never read a page of history from the past hundred years?

Or is it even worse than that, and he knows exactly what he is doing with this besieged-dissident schtick, and isn’t telling us what was really going on down at the office that had him need to get out in front of something? What? An affair? A bribe? An ex-girlfriend from college making “rape” noises? What is he really trying to cover with this smokescreen of his, this “manifesto”? This has “publicity stunt” written all over it, and like all publicity stunts, the media firestorm to follow will provide more than enough smoke to obscure what Comrade Engineer’s real motives ever were.

But I can assure you, changing Google’s “culture” was never among them.

I don’t think even Comrade Engineer is that stupid.
