Well, I have two thoughts about that. 1. Is Damore against "anti-discrimination provisions in law"? I haven't seen anything to suggest he is. He is against specific anti-discrimination policies at Google, certainly, but his objection to them seemed to be on the basis that they wouldn't be effective and would have other negative effects, not that anti-discrimination is undesirable. 2. If we assume Damore is a "classical liberal" (I think he called himself that in the memo), then he could have an entirely non-ironic desire to see the law enforced that is separate from whether or not he thinks any specific law is wise. This may seem silly (and I personally think it is in cases where a law is obviously stupid and unenforceable), but it's not on-its-face ridiculous, unless there's a quote somewhere that shows he really has contempt for the particular laws he's claiming protection from. I'd bet right now you're not going to find such a quote, since it seems like he's been planning this lawsuit for months before he got fired, just based on what screenshots were in the lawsuit. |
