That one could have been flagged off the front page, these kind of discussions are tricky to keep civil. This one will probably be flagged out in a similar manner.

Is that an automated process? The comment section didn't strike as being particularly uncivil.

Seems odd that both that and the post about google's poorly implemented gun filter were removed from front page.

If so, and they are better, just band together and create the next Google.

That is a libertarian argument for not having anti-discrimination laws. But if we do have such laws, they should applied on behalf of all races and both sexes, lest we create categories of second-class citizens.

I don't know if this guy has taken a look around, but Google is like 75% white and Asian males, and 25% everyone else. That might even be slightly generous. It skews even more for those in power. Doesn't seem like these classes are having any trouble succeeding at the company.

It might not be hard to convince a jury that it would be 80 or 85% if Google stopped all pro-diversity measures. It might be hard to convince them to penalize Google for it, though.

(FWIW, I'm on a team that consists solely of white and Asian males, and everyone on my chain is a white or Asian male, all the way to the top.)
