Stymied, I suspect. Lest they end up like James Damore.
- ihsw2 8y agoStymied in what sense? The cultural power brokers at Google have allocated a tiny sliver of lenience and they encourage vigorous debate within the confines of this narrowly-defined freedom. Similarly, this logic extends outward into society. The message sent out from Google's cultural authorities is this -- if you fall outside of the progressive chauvinist mindset then you are persona non grata by default. Repent, sinners, or be excommunicated.
