"You all are inferior because of your gender"

That's the definition of creating a vicious and predatory workplace. Hence, fired.

Not to mention every source he quoted came out saying that the information was misused.

That’s not what he said.

But really, this only highlights the real problem: if you censor someone, you can accuse them of having said anything because, by virtue of having censored the person, there’s no way for anyone to know better. Obviously many of us actually can still read Damore’s writeup, but that’s largely because the censorship isn’t actually effective yet. I’m just impressed that still doesn’t stop the would-be censors from lying about the stuff they’re trying to censor!

He never said that. Different != Inferior
