Should it surprise anyone that Google is now in lockstep with the other tech bros in scratching its efforts to hire minorities, even though it is run by an Indian born in India? Not me. www.cbsnews.com/texas/news/g... - ThreadSky

I really, really hope there’ll be a Nuremberg like trial where ALL of the #TrumpCollaborators can get skewered.

It’s a 🤬 hallucinating to be in my 40s and see all kinds of ‘liberal elite educated’, savvy business people flagrantly give into a bully.

I'm reminded of James Damore, who was fired by Google in 2017 for writing a 10-page manifesto filled with misogyny and racism claiming Google is a DEI echo chamber. I am sure he feels exonerated now.

Seeing things "differently" can be a wonderful thing - but you also need to know your history and not dabble in junk science to try and "prove" a biased viewpoint.

The slide on this front is horrifying. The National Football League announced on Tuesday that its social justice message, “End Racism,” commonly seen in the end zones of stadiums across the league, is being replaced with a new message for Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans. Boycott the Super Bowl!

Duck duck go is my new search engine.

Once I realized that DuckDuckGo was not just a search engine and that they had a browser as well I switched. I made the right decision. Now I just need to transfer my gmail account to something else and I'll be rid of google.
