They should entertain the possibility that they're mistaken and consider contrary arguments, instead of (for example) slandering the person making those arguments and pressuring management to fire him.
- Barrin92 8y agowhat makes you think they did not? Do you think people generally speak out lightly against the guys who sign their paychecks? Maybe you should entertain the possibility that they, as employees who are aware of what's going on internally and have their own employment at stake have made this decision after deliberation?
- weberc2 8y ago> what makes you think they did not? Lots of personal experience with far-left Googlers and other far left-wing folks in and out of the tech industry. Like their right-wing equivalents, they have an agenda to act on and they're not about to respond rationally to evidence one way or another, as evidenced by the Google memo fiasco. Yes, I'm aware this is a huge generalization, but I'm strapped for time so I'll leave the nuanced, longform version for your imagination. EDIT: Tried to change the wording to make this less likely to trigger a flame war.
