Many on bf have voiced support for compelled speech. Plus anyone in the Greens or far left faction of Labor.

No one wants to compel anyone to say anything. You can rest easy in your bed tonight knowing you can go the rest of your life not being compelled to utter a single syllable.

Nobody... except Qantas and all the others! C'mon m8...
 
Since when was post revolution US an economically and socially liberal/free market society? A society built on slavery, then post civil war in the reconstruction era (and beyond) it was marred by militancy, protectionism, state oppression of labour movements and ethnic minorities.

Even decades later during the gilded age, it was cronyism, not market liberalism that defined commerce in the US. I'm not sure championing imperial powers is the best way to sell a system or ideology, because then the argument becomes simply, the one who can steal the most stuff and kill the most enemies is the best, regardless of political and economic system.
Slavery is technically the most free market you can have. You can literally own people!
 
Everyone except for the nazi sympathisers out there absolutely hate the sort of people being discussed in these articles. We're talking like 95% of countries like Australia and the US. These are not effective whataboutism counter-arguments. We know these people are s**t. They aren't welcome at just about any discussion table. The politics associated with PC culture is another story, and why people get so fired up about it. It's insidious rather than explicit like black-hating skinheads.

I'm sure every woman loves sitting down at their desk in the morning and reading these sort of things from a co-worker.

Awesome team environment that will create :thumbsu:

Neuroticism (higher anxiety, lower stress tolerance).
○ This may contribute to the higher levels of anxiety women report on Googlegeist and to the lower number of women in high stress jobs.

Nearly every difference between men and women is interpreted as a form of women’s oppression. As with many things in life, gender differences are often a case of “grass being greener on the other side”; unfortunately, taxpayer and Google money is being spent to water only one side of the lawn.

If we, as a society, allow men to be more "feminine," then the gender gap will shrink, although probably because men will leave tech and leadership for traditionally "feminine" roles.

Differences in distributions of traits between men and women may in part explain why we don't have 50% representation of women in tech and leadership.
I know you've already continued the discussion past this post, but you've totally misread or understood both the content of Damore's essay and its purpose. It was not nefarious. It was not disparaging of women. In fact, to even suggest that an increased occurrence of personality trait neuroticism in women is a negative thing is just furthering socially constructed patriarchal misogyny, since it's clearly perfectly natural. So shame on you for even suggesting that interpretation! :)
 
I hope you aren't referring to the known troll who was running a series of "ANTIFA" facebook pages and pretending to be some kind of leader, giving interviews etc., only to be revealed as a rightwing ******* who had been chased off by activists over several incidents of harassment and alleged sexual assault. Why are you people so gullible?
The antifa protestors are all right wing plants too?
