      Yeah exactly, they fired a bunch of people for protesting Google’s cloud contract with Israel, so there’s no way this is a ‘woke’ directive from above as the article implies.

        First thing they did was call the cops on them. Google has no interest in listening to their workers.

      Idk about that. Google leadership supports whoever gives them a contract, which just so happens to be Israel in one high-profile case
