Nice parody. I thought you were a serious account for a moment.
You criticize someone for daring to speak on behalf of someone else, and then you claim to know someone's motives.
The zealotry of your ideology on full display. "I can read minds, but how dare you speak for someone else".
Ah, the 'oh I get it, you're a troll account' '"""""argument"""""" I've been hearing since 2014 from god knows how many dudes at this point. Seriously y'all the same, almost like....

What is the bold supposed to mean? Were you an old poster on this forum or what?

I'm glad the full story is coming out. It was hard to judge from the initial piece that let Rubin frame it as "disgruntled wife trying to sabotage divorce proceedings and custody of children". I don't see a problem with being a sugar daddy if the relationship is mutual but the guy was also married, shitting up his office with it and acting like his money was a license to act like a creepy stalker who thinks giving a gift creates an obligation to put up with his denigration and lack of respect for other people.

Is that rue? Isn't a mere fact of him being the boss enough even without explicit "or else" threats?
I'm rather frustrated as how ok it is to paint women as will-less beings who can be coerced into anything.
How did they end up in a hotel room, to begin with, what were the intentions?

I mean not really it's a fantasy for some. Some want to be owned. Some controlled. Some will follow everything their master says.
He paid people to be his pets/property. Not in the literal sense more in the kink sense, and it's not like he's forcing them to do it these people clearly are perfectly up for it.

Right? Google, the SJW darling company, had an exec who literally treated women like his property. I mean, you can't even satire this, people would think it was too on the nose and lacking all subtlety.

My friend works at Google and is super progressive. I will have to see what she thinks about this. Wouldn't be surprised if she quits.

It's craziness. But people seem to be ok with anything these days as long as it meets the "it was a consensual act in which no outside parties were harmed" criteria.
There was also a case in Germany a few years back about 2 sick fucks that met on craigslist, one wanted to eat a human and the other wanted to be eaten. Some people's fantasies are sick and twisted, and just because both parties involved wanted it doesn't really make the desires ok in my mind.

Bolding it doesn't make it sound worse. They wanted to be treated that way, and I can guarentee both parties signed contracts and NDA's just for this one case. I don't know how nobodys ever heard of this kink when 50 Shades of Grey is literally centered around this.
I can understand where you're going sure it's incredibly fucked up that someone would want to do that, but if people wanted to do that then so be it. It's gonna happen. I mean shit people want to "null" themselves by getting castrated like I don't know what to say other then if they wanted it to be a thing they it would have happened.
I mean shit I read into that and the two people involved were just normal people. I don't think the other person fully ate them I think they ate their arm or something like that.

I mean, I don't give a shit what they want to do. I'm just pointing out how ridiculous it is at face value that Google is so heralded by the SJW sheep despite the clear wolves that are among them.
2014 is when Gamergate happened lad. I never had a Gaf account pre-cataclysm, no accepted email account for it, but I did unfortunately use Twitter back then.
You're not making the point you think you're making.
Yes I am. You regurgitate the same nonsense alt-righters have been spewing since 2014 and moderate individuals are the NPCs? Yeaaaah...
Citation needed. Moderate individuals have been critical of Google's inner workings for many, many years. Including some of it's services, like YoutTube.

This seems like something of a leap given the same guy accused of having these arrangements is accused of coercing a woman into performing oral on him. But until someone else comes forward about it, we probably won't know how consensual these relationships were.

I'm sure some are critical, but I have no problem calling Google sympathetic to SJWs

Oh, okay. Thought you were a lapsed member.
What do you think a wiki article simply acknowledging the existence of some manifesto written by a known and incredibly fired alt-righter proves? This memo talks (inaccurately probably) about the inner workings, not how moderate society feels about google.

I never used the term NPC. You did. I'm not an alt-righter.
Your shtick is boring. You have no foundation for your arguments. And when this is pointed out you lash out emotionally. It's boring and predictable. Feel free to start posting substance any time now. Your post count is rapidly surging forward. Will we still see you around here after the midterms?

Am I mistaken, or does this paragraph state that Damore was fired for "perpetuating stereotypes about women"
He was fired for having opinions. My bringing up the Damore fiasco was to back @

's statement that Google is an SJW company. The fact that many moderate people criticize their practices doesn't really change their practices.

, if you're trying to sow doubt in the notion that Google is a liberal, progressive company (the "SJW" shorthand is perhaps not helping anyone here), you're gonna have a tough hill to climb. Even Google's own shareholders recognize it. Entirely apart from citing specific examples, it's a tech company located south of San Francisco that attracts young people. How could its culture not be progressive?
That all seems slightly beside the point to me, but I will note this: Google has tremendous power over how we find, store and communicate ideas. The bent of its leadership has a ripple effect on pretty much everyone around the world. Unfortunately.

Yeah I know what you mean. It's dumb but then again that's what PR, and legal departments are for right?
I mean but who goes into these arrangements especially someone in a place like him and doesn't have this stuff setup sure I'm assume he's not an idiot but :shrug:. If he didn't he'd be getting sued atm, but he's not because I'm so damn sure he waived their rights in whatever agreement they signed.

Please explain how James Damore is alt right
"I'm not alt-right"
*Proceeds to quack like an alt-righter*
Yes.
He was fired for demonizing an entire demographic that works for Google.
Who ever claimed anything other than that in this thread? Seriously? You need to improve your reading comprehension. Again I will state it, I am not referring to the inner workings of the company in any way whatsoever (same bolding as last time, hopefully you spot it this time). I am 'sowing doubt' in these silly statements-
- by pointing out that the general moderate public are actually quite critical of Google. They are not 'moderate darlings' at all. When they pull shit, both the moderate public and governments around the world pull them up on it.

I see now. You find-and-replace “SJW” with “moderate” and claim anyone who objects is “alt-right.” I don’t think this is as subtle a tactic as you hope.
I don’t know what else there is to talk about besides Google’s “inner workings.” The company’s effect on anyone outside it (like users, customers, the general public) stem directly from its “inner workings.”
It seems like you’re trying to have it both ways here: Google may be progressive in its “inner workings” but “moderate” in every other way (its external workings?).
I don’t think it’s a sign of poor reading comprehension that I can’t understand this at all. It’s simply nonsense.

Fool, who are you to say what I 'hope' for? You in my head now? It's not supposed to be subtle at all. It's just real life.
Oof. We got a slow one.
OK. Come in close.
Uh, I'm referring to the fact that someone incorrectly claimed Google is a 'darling' of the general population. It ain't. That's what there is to talk about. Get it now?

Below I've quoted some actual nonsense.
(what the hell are external workings?) You're really not following. How is a brand's reputation 'external workings? And how much glue have you had today?

Yes we are all one single poster.
Just how all 'NPCs' are actually just one reeally busy dude.
OK. I confess.
It's me.
I am every NPC.
That's why 'we' all sound the same.
Not because alt-right don't want to listen but for the reason I already gave.
