> Legal experts say the case has legs, with one lawyer telling Wired that “Damore's lawyer might argue that his memo was protected under California law, because it related to allegedly unequal treatment of employees.”
Unequal treatment of employees? How ironic.
This "memo" was probably one of the more unprofessional moves I've heard about in a while.
My own feelings are that it was cretinous and stupid. The same argument has been made for hundreds of years and women keep blowing it to smithereens. It has no legs to stand on.
I hope Google wins. It seems like it could be a blow if he wins on such a specious argument.
- ameister14 9y agoThe same argument actually hasn't been made for hundreds of years. The argument previously was that women were unfit, not simply uninterested.
