The fact that these entitled employees felt it was appropriate to bring their personal politics to the workplace shows how bad Google’s culture really is, and why there is bias in every product they make - not just the obvious ones like Gemini but also older things like Search. On most of these activist issues, the other side doesn’t have the same safety to speak up. This firing is a positive move but Google has a long ways to go still. As an aside, the person interviewed here is a 23 year old that is barely out of college. Statements like these show how naive workplace activists often are: > Because before then, we were Google employees with active badges who had every right to be in that workplace. It took them until putting us on administrative leave that they could actually get the cops to come in. > It was a complete overreaction on Google's part to not only fire everyone who was and wasn't involved, but then also threaten everyone else in the company who would dare think to stand up against this. And people are taking notice that it feels like a very fascist environment. And yet it’s voices like these that feel most comfortable to push their personal politics on others in the workplace.
