If you're wondering how companies like Google, with so many liberal employees and progressive statements, ends up spreading misinformation and handing power to terrible forces, here's an excerpt from
an article about Palantir:
When the scandal broke, Karp put the offending engineer on leave and issued a statement personally apologizing and pledging the company's support of "progressive values and causes." Outside counsel was retained to review the firm's actions and policies and, after some deliberation, determined it was acceptable to rehire the offending employee, much to the scorn of the company's critics.
Anyone can claim to be progressive, even Palantir.
