While people agree that the genders are imbalanced at Google that doesn't mean there is any reason to think that traits that typically differ within genders differ in different ways within Google. The example I gave previously is of height, I still think that's relevant. Just because Google is X% female and Y% male and X << Y that doesn't mean that we should necessarily expect females at Google are as tall or taller than males. They might be, but we have no reason to expect that. Why should we default to other expectations for different traits that are unrelated to their work? e.g. cooperativeness or assertiveness? My earlier point, which you seemed confused about, is that Damore was fired for disagreeing with the orthodoxy. You seemed and seem to be implying that he shared his opinion in an incorrect. You write that he "finally posted it in a very large group" as if this were some crime. And yet, if he were expressing Google dogma, it wouldn't have been a problem. This illustrates that the problem is not where he posted his feedback but simply what he posted. |

Strong disagree that those are the only two possibilities. I hold that most of the issue was how he presented his thoughts.
Regardless, you'd have to prove, first, that "what" and "where" are the only possibilities before your deduction can be solid.
