This past weekend Google engineer James Damore released a ten-page manifesto criticizing the politically correct culture that has infected Google’s corporate environment.
On Monday night Damore was fired by Google for straying from company diversity policy.
Opposing diversity policy is not allowed.
On Monday night Markus Persson the billionaire founder of Minecraft posted a rant against the intolerant brass at Google for firing the outspoken engineer.
I hope you see how the google firing is deeply problematic.

Then he took on one intolerant shame-hurling leftist:
