> if you pointed that out before Trump's election
This article is an expanded version of the author's reporting a year ago: https://www.tracingwoodgrains.com/p/the-faas-hiring-scandal-...
While it didn't make the same splash then, I saw it and didn't see people responding by trying to cancel the author.
Famously this guy James Damore tried to explain why the approach to diversity at google was not going to work. How did that work out for him?
I'm not arguing the obviously false "no one has been cancelled for arguing an approach to increasing diversity is counterproductive". I'm arguing "Trace wouldn't have been (and in fact wasn't) cancelled for writing about this pre-Trump"
