This is kind of a non-sequitur. Jewish people are allowed to have weird gender-based opinions and get fired for them too, just like everyone else. I don't really have a strong opinion on the overall actions by Apple, but people being offended by this quote is orthogonal to what ethnicity he is:

- fortran77 5y agoYou read one sentence from a well-reviewed popular book, because someone told you to read it and get outraged! C'mon now. Be honest with yourself. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/10/books/review/chaos-monkeys-by-antonio-garcia-martinez.html https://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/10/books/review/chaos-monkey... Nobody noticed this when the book came out. A posse was out to get him, and scrutinized this book with a fine-toothed comb.
