I know this isn't a popular opinion here, but the reality is that Google has created a hotbed for activism, espoused very political opinions internally, hired Twitter activists, played with identity politics, fired people for right of center political discussion... Now they are having their dirty laundry aired in the media (the same media that is aligned with the social activists they've been courting). This was the inevitable outcome of playing these games and they have absolutely reaped what they've sown. Hopefully this will be a lesson other companies can learn from and we'll start to see a return to "business" instead of "activism+business+social media outrage".
