The debate over Google's decision to fire an engineer has served as a kind of Rorschach Test. James Damore posted a memo criticizing Google's hiring practices based on race and gender. The reaction to Google's decision to fire Damore ranges from outrage -- Damore's supporters say he was only discussing basic differences between genders -- and strong approval.
