Fired memo writer hits back: Google 'almost like a cult' http://thehill.com/policy/technology/346250-fired-google-employee-company-almost-like-a-cult
The former Google employee who was fired after writing a memo critical of the company's diversity initiatives is hitting back, saying the company is "almost like a cult." "For many, including myself, working at Google is a major part of their identity, almost like a cult with its own leaders and saints, all believed to righteously uphold the sacred motto of 'Don't be evil,' " James Damore wrote in an op-ed Friday in The Wall Street Journal. - - - This nonsense from a creep who has voluntarily walked into the warm embrace of the worst alt-right racists. Having worked inside Google I can say pretty definitively that if there's any cult there, it's a cult of drinking lots of coffee while working very hard. And that's a cult I endorse personally. --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein (lau...@vortex.com): https://www.vortex.com/lauren Lauren's Blog: https://lauren.vortex.com Google Issues Mailing List: https://vortex.com/google-issues Founder: Network Neutrality Squad: https://www.nnsquad.org PRIVACY Forum: https://www.vortex.com/privacy-info Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: https://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Google+: https://google.com/+LaurenWeinstein Twitter: https://twitter.com/laurenweinstein Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 --- Impeach Trump --- _______________________________________________ pfir mailing list https://lists.pfir.org/mailman/listinfo/pfir
