This makes sense - as Paul Graham mentioned in his essay from January [1] “outrage means traffic”. No-one gets more outraged than left leaning viewers watching Trump videos. [1] ht…

Fair enough, but is the notion that some of the time, in a company that explicitly promotes DEI, that a person is there not entirely based on merit, evil and stupid? Serious questi…
