Google Class Action Suit: Colm Buckley, high-tanking SRE Director, writes that he'll silence employees who complain about any female team members not doing their jobs

False equivalence? He doesn't believe people are equal. Straight from the horses mouth.

quite literally:

"My tolerance for alternative views ends at my friend's feelings"

o.O

Colm Buckley is an a abuser

He must see women and immigrants as very weak.

Weird how we've twisted "words that make people feel bad" into "violence". Plus if there are multiple complaints about diversity hires not doing their job, you're hurting the company by not at least investigating them to see if they have any merit. But just putting a blanket ban on criticizing [insert protected group] is stupid policy on so many levels. Not to mention blatantly illegal.

Wait, the title describes the message incorrectly. He writes you can't say minorities don't do their jobs, in general. That's quite a different message. Do we have to distort people's words to make a point?

Fuck Google. This is WAR!

Where can we see that this comment applies to a complaint about the performance of a staff member that happens to be female? It seems like it applies to sweeping negative generalisations of entire groups of people that may come across, justifiably or not, as sexism?

Wait, the title and what he actually said don't seem connected.

I didn't think anything he said had to do with "complaining about women not doing their job".

What am I missing?

It doesn't show what the guy actually said that the ceo is responding to.

They are in a race against time I think.

Trump is moving to stop people taking class action suits against corporations.

Right libertarians, this is what deregulation and the far right is really about, corporate tyranny and removing rights.

And expecting corporations to be as fair democratic as states is barking up the wrong tree, corporations behaving well is a left wing idea forced through collective action, enforced by government. You want to give that all away.

You can't have it both ways - far right while keeping all the benefits the left and the mens movement fought for like free speech and regulations that protect you from corporate tyranny as well.
