Are people of specific races to be put beyond criticism?

This seems like a bizarre mid-representation of GPs point. They sated she was “par for the course” for that department. Meaning everyone was bad, not just her. And found it concerning she was the only person they singled out.
The author worked under her at least during their time working on flutter; which was their most recent experience at google.
Pretty much yes if you want to stay employed. Hixie can speak up now because he left.
If she is in fact "par for the course" and the failures of that department were at multiple levels then that type of criticism is certainly suspect. I give you a C- at attempted strawman though.
