It's sort of meta but...

The article repeatedly mentions Gebru's race and sex and includes it for the only Google employee quoted. Why does that matter? Is she more reliable because of her skin colour? Is he less reliable because of his genitals?

The cynic in me feels like I'm being subtly trolled. Or maybe I'm just oversensitive? :)

It's typical SJW narrative. People are tired of it, it's like the boy who cried wolf story. Hopefully at some point people will just learn to ignore these "woke" SJWs as they have their tantrums.

I think they're trying to make out it's racial and she was slienced on pointing out a racial issue.

It just seems to be conflating so many things: personal racism against her (which I see no evidence of) and institutional racism (which is some of what she researches but then her and his race are irrelevant). That plus sexism. Plus academic freedom and employee-employer relations and PR.

In the end, it's a mess of nothings, rather and 1 solid something imho...
