Not sure how else you would label spraying "Kill all the Jews" in a toilet stall.

Oh sure, I agree. I am not saying those are not, just that it's so shocking to find it's Googlers.

  Ever since that video 8 years ago of a college kid yelling at a professor at Yale [1], it seemed to me that a non-negligible part of American youth, much of it in highly regarded universities (such as Yale, Harvard, Berkeley and Stanford) does not understand, nor want to understand, nuance and proportionality. You don't protest violence by being violent yourself. Rank-and-file Googlers in the US tend to be young (<30) and from those universities or their like. Certainly seems to be the case in this article.

    What's even more disturbing is that there are groups and interests which are actively controlling these students opinions. One would think these would be the best and brightest at those universities, and consequently the best and brightest at Google. Surely, they should be hardest ones to use as ideological drones. One case I remember, for instance, which illustrates this drone control well was the bakery incident at Oberlin college. At some point during the discovery, there was an email from an "organizer" how they will unleash the students. I thought that a rare case of controller putting in writting and acknowledging how the whole mechanism works.

yea because you bothered to verify who actually did that, if that's all it takes then anybody can just spray such things against their own tribe and create artificial hysteria.

  That is a fair point. This should be investigated. I have heard of incidents like that at the nearby college. The police got called and eventually it turned out a member of the target group wrote the message.
