SciAmerican: Google Engineer Fired for Sexist Memo Isn't a Hero

https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/cross-check/google-engineer-fired-for-sexist-memo-isnt-a-hero/

	He presents himself as a courageous defender of truth.
	Google, in contrast, is an "echo chamber" that is "intolerant
	of scientific debate and reasoned argument." Damore notes that
	Noam Chomsky, the linguist and social critic, once wrote: "The
	smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly
	limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very
	lively debate within that spectrum."  But Chomsky has
	expressed abhorrence for research into cognitive differences
	between different groups. In his 1987 book Language and
	Problems of Knowledge Chomsky wrote: "Surely people differ in
	their biologically determined qualities. The world would be
	too horrible to contemplate if they did not. But discovery of
	a correlation between some of these qualities is of no
	scientific interest and of no social significance, except to
	racists, sexists and the like."
