Do you think she was unaware of Googles strong push for women in the workplace?
That seems unlikely.
Do you think she was previously unaware that many people might think diversity hires are less qualified?
That seems unlikely.
Did the memo guy state that diversity hires are lowering the bar? No. He went out of his way to say the opposite.
The most likely scenario is she has felt this way since she was hired and now has a specific person she can direct her anger/frustration/hurt onto.

This is demonstrably false. Imposter syndrome is quite common for men in tech.
I would be interested to see studies on imposter syndrome between genders and between fields.
