What do you mean by "internal social justice" stuff?

This current story does not sound like anything weird is going on but some of the stories it sounds like some employees spend a majority of their time setting up protests internally.

It is hard to understand how someone can spend significant time in the office fomenting internal protests (even if they are for a good cause) and actually be getting their job done.

I'm guessing it's from people spending too much time at the company and having poor work/private life separation.

Free food, laundry, gym, haircuts, recreation, a swim-in place swimming pool with a lifeguard...it's almost like Google sets it up to blur those work/private life lines.

Perhaps they aren't and perhaps that's not relevant because they're not important enough.

Tends to happen in large organisations.

Sorry if I wasn’t clear: Anyone who uses SJW as a carefully chosen pejorative is the hateful one in these situations.
