Google Employee Anti-Israel Insurrection Should Be A Wake Up Call To Ditch Woke Corporate Culture

Every now and then a topic comes along that was just too good to pass up.

That happened on yesterday when Kemberlee and I had an opportunity to write about the intersection between Google and anti-Israel activists. When it comes to search results, we along with much of conservative media is nowhere to be found. Even for Gibson’s Bakery v. Oberlin, where we dominated the news, we were many pages down, which means we were lost. We’ve also been demonitized by Google Ads, a hit on our revenue given Google’s dominant position in online ads.

Woke eats its own, and Google experienced that when anti-Israel employees who threw their own insurrection by occupying parts of Google HQ leading to their firing and arrest. Oorah for that, but maybe it’s time to for woke corporate America to wake up to the monsters they have created.

Our column appeared in the NY Post, Firing anti-Israel subversives is a good start, but Google’s Sundar Pichai has a long way to go. Here’s an excerpt, click on the link for the full column:

It looks like Google finally got around to googling Winston Churchill’s famous quote: “An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.”

When radical leftist employees occupied Google’s New York and Sunnyvale offices in an anti-Israel, pro-terrorist sit-in, the tech giant felt the hot crocodile breath, called the police and had them arrested. Good for Google.

But that’s still not far enough.

Don’t believe for a second that Google is walking away from its woke policies.

Had those employees not occupied Google’s offices, they’d still be sitting in their little Google pods, working away, actively subverting businesses that are not part of the Woke religion.

A couple of dozen employees gone; hundreds who are just as politically malignant still on the job….

We’ve written on these pages about Google’s Gemini AI churning out historically inaccurate pictures of black Vikings and female popes.

You may also recall that Google fired an employee because he expressed his constitutionally protected but “politically incorrect” conservative opinions.

Google is horrendously biased.

And everyone knows it.

But Google’s discrimination isn’t always so blatant.

Much, if not most of Google’s bias manifests in discrete discrimination against non-woke or conservative voices.

If Pichai wants to put his money where his mouth is, he can and should start by addressing Google’s algorithmic bias, which black holes everything not woke, particularly in news and media.

Wouldn’t it be great to see the New York Post appear among the top search results for “Donald Trump”?

But that doesn’t happen.

Instead, The New York Times, CNN and other liberal outlets hostile to Trump rise to the top.

We just did that search, and The Post was not even on the first page of results.

We feel The Post’s search-result pain.

Our site, LegalInsurrection.com, suffers the same down-throttling in search results, even when our stories are among the most highly read on a topic.

This happened to us with the Gibson’s Bakery v. Oberlin College case, where our coverage drove the news.

Worse still, we have inexplicably been demonetized by Google Ads.

Google owns YouTube, which removes videos that don’t toe the woke line….

But this ridiculousness doesn’t end with algorithmic discrimination….

So, just because Google fired a few of its subversive woke employees, doesn’t mean it’s changing its culture.

Google has a long, long way to go.

The column got good placement in the print edition today:
