True, but it's also a very biased view with events that take place in most of large companies (you can find these reports for Amazon, Apple, etc. etc.) And yet others seem to get a free pass while Google is targeted by wrath of HN. Why?


It could be because we're in a thread discussing a court case about possible discrimination at Google...


Amazon has been highly criticized here. Apple much less so for reasons that aren't clear to me.


Mostly because Apple has legions of fanatics which are well established here. Apple gets criticism, you just don't get to see it unless you change your prefs to show flagged/dead posts.

It's ironic, because Apple fans were painted as carrying the sledge hammer of inconvenient truth, not acting like the grey drones who oppress all differences of opinion in the 1984 commercial.


It's because people think there is discrimination in tech against Caucasians.
