I know of some people who work at Google.
My take is the following:
If you marry and American girl and you have a fight, and she runs to her friends and family to complain about you - almost for certain they will scream DIVORCE HIM, and CLEAN HIS CLOCK.
If you marry a foreign-born girl from a family with traditional values (as I did) and you have a fight, her family (at least) would insist that she try as hard as she can to work it out.
So which case above gets the girl even angrier? The first case, since her position is being reinforced over and over again.
How does this relate to Google as opposed to other companies? Well they have their internal ‘discussion groups’ where the people working there, particularly the females, literally trash the crap out of white males, and almost make a game of amplifying each other with their vile hatred. They do it openly and without fear. Finally something had to snap there. Other (legacy) companies generally don’t have those types of platforms - they expect people to go to work, do their jobs, and keep their hatred, if any, of others to themselves - hence the white males at those companies don’t have to put up with nearly the amount of horrific rhetoric aimed at white male employees at Google...and hence Google is the company that has now totally boxed themselves in, with white males wondering why they should even bother staying there (and trust me, the good ones can leave on a dime), and now, due to the amplification effect, the women claiming that they’re treated worse than women in the Middle East - when, in fact, they literally have NO CLUE as to what professional women of past generations have had to deal with.
So it’s Google’s fault, and they have a mess. But, at the very least, they need to SHUT DOWN those forums, and do that fast. They don’t accomplish a damn thing when they spew more hatred toward white males than even the KKK could come up with towards blacks, if they had a similar forum.
Is this what prompted Damore to write his "manifesto" (did he really call it that, or is that a media creation?).
This is the "You go gurl!" attitude that is rampant today. Its reinforced by popular culture, media, academia, and other areas of todays warped society. The reaction is the same; devoid of facts, logic, or reason.
