Looks like Google employees are intentionally antagonizing and fighting against Google Execs causing Google and Alphabet to drop contracts and lose money. I guess foster divisive political issues at the corporate level isn't working out so well and apparently investors are noticing.

Where will you be when google is destroyed from within by onions drinking, non-binary refugees of color?

I was wondering when shit like this was going to start fucking with the investors. It's only going to get worse. I'm curious what the CIA and deep state types are thinking about tech companies starting to refuse the military industrial complex because they're employees are all liberals.

Mason King
I hope Google doubles down and kills themselves.
Andrew Scott
I'll put money on google doubling down on stupid
Carson Collins
Diversity is not a mistake as long it is "this person is skilled as fuck, i'm hiring it regardless on how it looks like otherwise yahoo will get him/her". It fails as soon it becomes "i got too many whites". The true solution for the "too many whites" problem is "i will open a school on this poor neighbor, then hire everyone good that pops from it before the others have the chance".
Colton Murphy
That's transphobic
Elijah Moore
It would be the case but you killed it. Little by little the women were conquering the space, showing their prowess, giving hope to the next generation. But then you came with your diversity hires and painted all women as "the crap we have to hire", and 5 years from now, the women will have to start to climb again from basically zero.
Congratulations.
Mason Allen
wasn't computing originally a female dominated field anyway?
Chase Kelly
While the men were at war, yes. Its like if women do get more useful when there's no men to do it for em.
Nolan Myers
Maybe back in the day, but have you ever watched any of the survivor type tv shows where the two teams are all men vs all women?
Justin Morgan
Well, those women still had men as bosses telling em what to do.
Dylan Allen
What do you mean? The all women team was just women on their own. They failed pretty hard
Ayden Hernandez
I'm talking about the female programmers/welders etc from WW2.
Charles Phillips
>Googlers are encouraged to “bring their whole selves to work” why does every boss want to be Hank Scorpio? Did they miss the whole point was that behind his friendly facade there was a terrifying supervillain?
"Bring your whole self to work" sounds like a slogan for a company that cuts employees up into dogfood.
Elijah Roberts
No. The menial labor of the industry was, but the theoretic and anything technical was far from dominated by women. Kind of like it is now.
In during Lovelace. She lacked any sort of impressive technical knowledge or education necessary to be a mathematician, much less a pioneer in computer science. She just happened to know Italian or whatever it was that the person who attended a conference from Babbage spoke.
Aaron Torres
desu I'd probably have refused to work on the drone project too.
Not that I know what it is, but I can guess: Autonomous mini-drones designed to kill people (how portable is a 1-shot .22? Think it could fit on a palm-sized drone and be aimed at someone's head from
Andrew Mitchell
No, because when people say things like this they don't mention that the programming was actually done beforehand and the female "programmers" were actually just doing data entry.

>>At Wednesday's shareholder meeting, a Google employee will step up to the microphone to argue that executive compensation should be tied to diversity goals. This is effectively an admission that Google is a Nazi organization >>An employee revolt last week forced Google to back off a controversial and potentially lucrative military drone project. Shows their true colors. These people are loyal to only themselves >>Google has fostered open and largely unmoderated internal discussions. Googlers are encouraged to “bring their whole selves to work” and challenge each other freely, lighting up the company message boards with divergent opinions on a wide range of topics. But the Damore debate stirred anger on both sides, quickly becoming toxic. Now does this mean intellectually, or more in the sense of people cannibalizing each other?
Easton Long
Do you really believe these types of media antics actually indicate a tech companies standing up against the secret/deep state types? Get real, my dude. At best it's irrelevant to them/the people working with them, at worst it's a deliberately induced chaos working for their benefit overall, divisiveness between more people can only benefit those wanting to divide and conquer.
