Which is why he'll get some kind of settlement. Which is largely what this seemed about anyways. Any way you look at it this employee is costing Google money. He went right to alt-right commentators and podcasters and targetted a group of people inside Google as PC leftists, which has now led to Google employees having targets painted on their backs. Google loses no matter what they do here because this employee wrote an inflammatory internal post. This more and more comes off like the type of thing done by an individual who supports things like walking around with an AR15 in public. Sure it's legal but it's only being done to cause a reaction which can then be pointed at to claim oppression.

- cannonedhamster 9y agoLeftists podcasts are generally known as "the news". I'm pretty sure there were people clamoring to talk to him as it's hot news right now. He chose the receptive audience that he knew would support him.
- rapsey 9y agoIf that is the case he made absolutely the right decision. The podcasts he appeared on allowed him to speak and state his case. "The news" is far from an editing unbiased reasonable discussion. They completely misrepresented his views already, there is absolutely zero reason to believe they would give him a fair chance to represent himself.
