Meanwhile, Timrit is spinning up more choas on Twitter: https://twitter.com/timnitGebru/status/1362886704361791488

At this point, I am moving past all this drama. This corporate soap opera televised on Twitter needs to cease.

If the person fired thinks that it was illegal, they should settle this in the court with Google. A company can fire anyone for any reason that's legal just the way you can leave the company for any reason.

It seems Timrit is upset that someone got fired via personal communication channels. Well, when you're locked out of the corporate one for security violations. That's what is going to happen.

you should read the e-mail she sent out at google before her resignation/firing/departure - hard to believe she was a manager.

Agreed.

We as human beings need to choose not to be manipulated through these very effective communications means.

Outrage is just not good enough without constructiveness.

Villifying everyone who disagrees with your "clan", is not fair argument.

That "one's own side wins" through these means.. nothing good will come out of it!
