You are taking a very nuanced piece and summarize it in a way which does away with all the nuance, plus you highlight statetements which were not questioned by the memo itself. Why? There is a point why sometimes, a bit more reading is required to get the full picture. Not everything can be made to fit into the length of a few tweets.
More information, not less, is what's needed in regards to understanding the dynamics and complexities that are impacting gender disparities in tech. The Google memo itself as well as the outcry against it clearly showed that.
- weberc2 9y agoI absolutely agree. Not only does it do away with much of the detail; this summary specifically highlights only those details which support the discrimination hypothesis, after the authors of the article went to great lengths to assemble a maximally complete portrait. This urge to not only simplify, but to simplify along partisan lines is damaging to everyone.
