The Inclusion Non Paradox
Google fires employee who wrote memo against workplace diversity, citing biological differences between men and women as the reason women cannot be engineers.
Predictably the howling begins from the right that liberals are intolerant, thereby providing yet another opportunity (as if we needed yet another one) to ponder the Barber Paradox. Or: how to redefine a thing in such a way as to make the thing you’re redefining impossible to exist.
Tolerance is not indifference. Inclusion is not indifference. Freedom of speech is not indifference.
