Outraged about the Google diversity memo?

"This google guy" was a self-declared conservative, and mentioned cultural marxism, an alt-right touchstone, in the very memo that is being discussed.

His first interviews were with alt-right Youtube channels.

I agree with your points about lots of minority groups being socially (and/or fiscally) conservative. It's lucky for the left that the white social conservatives have been driving them away consistently for decades.

Certainly a conservative compared to his coworkers.

I'd argue he is still left of center.

He is just interviewing with the groups who will give him a fair go.

Jordan Peterson is alt-right?

I'd never heard of him till yesterday, when I read a comment where he replied to one of his fans who wanted to form a breakaway state so his children could be raised only among their own ethnicity, and his reply was (paraphrasing from memory, but it was a weird enough answer that it kind of stuck) "Strengthen your soul to achieve your political goals".

So yeah he's definitely in that general area.
