1. How about you provide links to said tweets to help us round out that picture. Also, when have you ever given a pre-emptive apology about anything? Apologies generally only happen when offense is recognized. 2. This is just the N billion Muslims will be offended argument repackaged. Pick an action and you can find a sufficiently large group of people to be offended by said action. And no one opinion expressed removes the ability for anyone else judge what they themselves thing is racist. To express otherwise is disingenuous. 3. Barely half is not most as you originally claimed and what about the other staff not in the vocal group of 20 or so. Does the minority opinion and that of say Anna Wintour not matter? Lastly, if you think most workplaces operate under the rules of Teen Vogue in terms of employees relationship to management you are going to have a hard worklife ahead of you.

1. Google is your friend. Some of the racist tweets were reposted, but most of the racist tweets (and all of the homophobic tweets) have been deleted. 2. Sure it is. But you don't get to decide whether someone else is offended by something. Especially when you're not in the group of people who were targeted by the statements. If McCammond had made similarly racist comments about Latinos or Blacks, she would never have been in the running for the job in the first place. 3. More than half of the employed staff voiced concerns based on her racist and homophobic actions in the past. Out of a staff of 45 (including interns and contractors), more than 20 employees said she wasn't suitable for the job. You clearly work in a tech environment where HR isn't a thing. I've worked more corporate jobs than you have. In any other company, if half of the employees said the incoming boss was a racist homophobe, and customers started pulling orders, that person's offer would have been withdrawn without hesitation.
