This is good information for people to reflect on this discussion. There is a lot of speculation in this thread and it's what is ultimately leading to the divisive arguing.

However, I don't think Google did what you have pasted here. As far as I can tell, they fired him for violating code of conduct, which maintains that employees do not publicize discriminating memos, which he did.

He did not publish it. It was published without his consent. It was supposed to be private.

I'm not saying he did. In fact, I have already mentioned in another thread here that the leaker was wrong.

However, code of conduct at Google basically doesn't want employees marginalizing other employees. That is what Damore did.

Exactly. You have to think of everyone including the women and be difficult to have him on a team after he wrote the memo and shared his feelings.
