I'm not talking about google at all. Life is not black and white. Systems heavily impact human bevaviour, but google is a company full of different people. There can be a milion of reasons how they ended up with lower pay, and it ended up in court.
They can't be ideologicaly saint or moraly clean if they work there, assuming that google is evil (well I try to stay as far from their products as I can).
They got suddenly woke after realising that they wanted higher pay. It's not statistics, there should be some record on every person and reason why they got such and such salary. If they have higher qualifications, work there or in industry longer, work more/better, and have smaller pay then they should get rise and there is a lot of dumb people at google because they should realise that and do review of everyones pay and correct them. Instead this ended up in court. So this didn't happen and a lot of people is really hard headed there or unusually google is a victim here. We will see who wins, and if we agree.
I would like to see floss thrive, but not because of woke people destroying companies from inside for no reason, or for wrong reasons.
I'm dubious about morality when huge amounts od money are on the stake. Because there is a difference between fighting for some one/group of people to change and become better, and wanting to get rich quick on someones back and slap human rights sticker on it.
Also I can be totally wrong with every idea above. And I can see your point of view.
