Some of the points he made were a bit biased hidden behind the curtains of “its science”.

I grew up really believing that white people were superior because of their genetics. I’m sure with some studies you can scientifically prove that too.

There are some women who were unable to sleep thinking what their peers would think about them after reading the manifesto.

You may think it was totally okay but may be you didn’t grow up with the biases enforced into you from a young age.

I am not a woman, but I know it’s hard to be taken seriously when someone can just label your behavior as “it’s biological”.

We need to fight this just as hard as we fought to end slavery around the world.

No matter your color, gender, sexual orientation, age, you will be treated equally.

But that is exactly his point: by applying a bias while recruiting you are not treating people equally. Quite the opposite.
