BRING DIVERSITY TO GOOGLE BY BREAKING IT UP
2017-08-09
h/t Instapundit
A Google engineer wrote a manifesto calling for diversity of the mind, for ideological diversity, over the identity politics diversity that companies love so much. And Google CEO Sundar Pichai responded by firing him.

Point made.

Pichai's post is endorses free speech but claims that the employee was fired for perpetuating "stereotypes". Anyone worried about free speech can pay a visit to Pichai. And he'll fire them too. The post is full of the usual prog horror at the agony suffered by other leftist employees who had to experience the torture of free speech they disagreed with. The cries of the oppressed, who remains oppressed even though they're the ones with the power to fire other employees for disagreeing with them, ring in Pichai's ears.

Diversity is a great thing. Who can argue with that.

Take Google.

Google needs to be more diverse. Why should Google be one company when it can be split up into a diverse collection of 5 or 6 separate companies.

Currently Google is a giant monopoly which leverages its monopolistic control over search, online advertising and video (not to mention a few other fields) to crush competitors and promote its own products and services.

All of this is illegal. But Republicans toe the capitalist line. Even with anti-capitalist companies. And Google is a friendly lefty corporation so the Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders types (to say nothing of the Obama types) leave them alone.
