Google Fires Men First Activist James Damore For His 10-Pg Rant On Female Inferiority

The now famous Google engineer James Damore is out of a job, although Julian Assange says that WikiLeaks would be offering the outspoken critic of women's brain power a job, writes Vanity Fair. 

In a companywide email, Google’s chief executive, Sundar Pichai, said portions of the memo had crossed the company's code of conduct “by advancing harmful gender stereotypes in our workplace.”

“The memo has clearly impacted our co-workers, some of whom are hurting and feel judged based on their gender,” Mr. Pichai wrote. “Our co-workers shouldn’t have to worry that each time they open their mouths to speak in a meeting, they have to prove that they are not like the memo states, being ‘agreeable’ rather than ‘assertive,’ showing a ‘lower stress tolerance,’ or being ‘neurotic.’”

Damore's memo entitled 'Google's Ideological Echo Chamber' went viral over the weekend, as it condemned Google's "politically correct monoculture' that silences conservative viewpoints that embraces the biological differences between men and women.

Damore says he will sue Google for abrogating his First Amendment free-speech rights, but Business Insider says he will lose, even as the alt-right wing of the Internet is rallying to his cause. 

More important, Damore's speech has not been restricted. He can continue to express his opinion. Indeed, his opinion has already been published far more widely than he can have hoped. His speech is on steroids right now! His legal problem is that he does not have a constitutional right to a job at Google. If he is an "at will" employee — i.e., an employee not governed by a special contract that, say, a film star might have — then Google has every right to demand that he leave.

UCLA law professor Eugene Volokh has written a lengthy legal paper on this topic. This key paragraph sums up the legal situation:

"Of course, employee speech can always be restricted by private employers, who are not bound by the First Amendment. This cannot, however, authorize greater restrictions by the government. A householder is entitled to kick out dinner guests who say certain things. A commercial landlord can refuse to rent to tenants who put up certain posters. A newspaper publisher can refuse to publish articles with which he disagrees. A private university may restrict what its faculty say in class, or even what its students say on campus. Speech on private property can generally be controlled by the private property owner."

Note that there is more than one version of conservatism in America today, but the most noteworthy one embraced by the alt-right and many Trump administration top-level men and women is that in the aggregate white males are best at everything. 

Consider Trump's senior-adviser and current candidate for communications director Stephen Miller saying in his 2005 'Sorry Feminists' Post:

TRUMP TALK

Stephen Miller on Women's Roles: “The truth is, even in modern-day America, there is a place for gender roles. I simply wouldn’t feel comfortable hiring a full-time male babysitter or driving down the street and seeing a group of women carrying heavy steel pillars to a construction site. I can’t stomach the idea of, say, having a wife who worked as a prison guard . . . “
