Daring to challenge Google's holy orthodoxy got Damore fired, but I think firing someone without a valid reason will cost Google a lot in terms of money and in terms of reputation. A lot of the rumors about Google manipulating information will be confirmed and there may be legal ramifications beyond the civil case which Google will be forced to deal with.

Swamp Watch: Inside the lawsuit filed by ex-Google engineer
Lots of excellent examples of actual quotes from intolerant progressive liberal Google employees. These quotes demonstrate that Google fostered a toxic workplace environment which discriminated against conservatives. Judging from the extreme nature of the comments, moderates probably felt very uncomfortable in that environment also.

Do white Google engineers have a case in discrimination lawsuit?
The only way Google will win this lawsuit is if they payoff the judge (or jury). No sane and honest judge or jury would rule in Google's favor. Google's guilt in this case is so obvious and so blatant that there is no amount of reframing of the evidence that will put Google in a good light.

Jordan Peterson debate on the gender pay gap, campus protests and postmodernism
Absolutely phenomenal performance by Peterson and incredibly dismal performance by the interviewer. I'm not sure if she is partially deaf or just cognitively impaired. Also brilliant comments by other viewers:
As a registered democrat and classical liberal, when the left abandoned facts in favor of feelings, I jumped ship. Jordan owned this interview and Cathy should be ashamed for her dismal attempts trying to conflate his words to mean something that fits your narrative. I hope more people jump from the Titanic that is the left wing.

What's even more annoying is the desperate attempt by the British media to divert attention away from Cathy's terrible performance by saying she's being attacked by Peterson's misogynistic, alt-right fans. Not only is this demonstrably untrue but quite the opposite is happening, all I see is rational and logical people speaking out against Channel 4's blatant ideological posturing . Yet again more evidence that MSM cannot handle social media and are becoming less and less relevant.

No lobsters were harmed during the making of this interview. Cathy's reputation, however, got hit by a truck.

She is an idealogue. Interested foremost in spreading her agenda. She is facing someone far too intelligent and is clearly overmatched. Truth wins in the end.

Q: What do you call a letter from a feminist? A: Hate male.

cactuspete: Great example of how ideology renders one incapable of reason. Jordan Peterson might be one of the few ideology-free clinical psychologists in existence. He fearlessly goes wherever the facts lead him and he doesn't try to bend them to fit some ideology. It's important to be ideology-free if your desire is to be a clear thinker. It's the only way.

Google’s Firing of James Damore Was Legal, Science Is Now Discrimination
Apparently scientific evidence, logic, a well-reasoned argument, and intellectual discourse now all constitute sexual harassment. That's basically what the court decision discussed in this video asserts.

The prediction I'll make is that Damore will wind up having a huge impact on the tech industry one way or the other. He will be a big disruption and Google will wish that they had handled the situation differently. Sooner or later. I still have faith that scientific evidence, logic, a well-reasoned argument, and intellectual discourse will ultimately prove victorious.

What it's like to be a conservative in Silicon Valley
Gotta give this guy a ton of respect. Groupthink in Silicon Valley may develop into something like the Dark Ages if more people don't push back like Damore.

Left's 'toxic masculinity' label to blame for male crisis?
Advice for parents starting at the five minute mark (more or less):
If you have your children in a school and they talk about... equity, diversity, inclusivity, white privilege, systemic racism, any of that, you take your children out of the class. They're not being educated, they're being indoctrinated. And there's absolutely no excuse for it.
