It’s incredible to me that people can’t see that this is obvious bait. He is just saying this to get attention, and it’s clearly working.

Some people simply cannot decouple their moral outrage from their ability to assess a situation. Good for a particular type of comedian, though it's not really to my taste.

How do you know this isn’t his opinion?

It might be his opinion, but frankly I doubt it. It’s hyperexaggerated bait in any case.
The story about him interviewing people, throwing their resumes in the trash and telling them to “go have kids” is obviously BS, so it stands to reason that the rest isn’t true either.

Yeah here’s the thing: Nothing good comes from giving benefit of the doubt to the kind of piece of shit who makes such claims.

It is unlikely he trashed anybody's resumes during an interview. There would be lawsuits.
Does it matter if this is his opinion? He's a YouTube entertainer, not an employer, and his audience knows when he's trolling.

You see, that’s the thing with the far-right grift. It’s always like dealing with Schrödinger’s cat but for beliefs. But the answer to “Are they a deeply unpleasant person or are they just in it for the attention/money?” is always both. This isn’t new. Goebbels was quite open about the fact a lot of what he did was fundamentally in bad faith.

TechLead does not strike me as 'far-right'. He spent enough time in California working for Facebook and Google that I would be shocked if he is anything other than far to mid left.

big tech companies are not and have never been far-left
