You did yourself a disservice by stopping after the first paragraph.

If you would have recognized his opening paragraph as hyperbole, you would have gone on to read a comprehensive opinion from a former Google HR employee on the ramifications of publishing such a memo. He makes very good points that are worth consideration, or at least reading for the detailed insight into why Google's hand was played and forced to fire him.

That post is a remarkable example of victim blaming. "Do you know how hard it is for ME now that you've gone and gotten people violently angry at you? People want to punch you in the face for something they think you said, and that's your fault!"
I mean that is the job of any HR rep. That’s literally the point of the job is to focus on how actions effect the company.
sorry but Zunger is just full of himself and his text is just inappropriate, violent and an attempt to bully the guy.
