This Zunger person is a pretty good example of a conflict-(mis)handling approach which I've seen a lot in the past years on tech-oriented social networks: * public humiliation - check (casting doubt on the engineering skills of the individual). * threat of violence - check ("a good number of the people you might have to work with may simply punch you in the face"). * retribution through firing - check * speaking as a champion of all that is good, castigating the evil "outlier" Basically trying to completely destroy the career of someone whose opinions are for different reasons unpalatable. The author should go to a psychologist to have their anger managemnt issues threated. They think they've taken a stand, but instead they've just shown they're unfit to be in any leadership position, can't control their emotions properly and can't even make a cogent argument.
