At least that is how it is being covered. Actually reading the memo, the author is not dissenting from the idea, just asking questions about the particulars of the way Google is doing it. But whatever.....

He makes several terrible, unforgivable errors. (Yes, sarcasm.)

He suggests that men and women, in terms of population average distribution of traits, have real measurable differences.

In view of those differences, he questions the use of additional resources to *force* equal gender representation in various fields (but not others).

He suggests 'diversity' be considered in bottom line instead of absolute moral terms. ROI vs religion.

Funny thing is, apparently this guy is some kind of genius prodigy with a background in biology.

Diversity is the goal and shall not be questioned. I took one of the HR droids at my company to task after she (it's always she) wrote a breathless, congratulatory, email to the whole company about the important, and I quote, "diversity hire" who just accepted a position with the company. I asked her how she felt about women being reduced to "diversity hires". Never did get a response.

Celebrate Diversity has become Celebrate Diversity, Or Else.

Porn could take a few lessons on degrading women from her.

The Village is what Google wants to make for us. Looks idyllic, but wander outside the boundary and along comes Rover.
