Google cancels diversity meeting amid threats
The last few days have been pretty harrowing for people who believe in the basic good stuff that America is supposed to be all about, but not all of the assholes of the world are focusing their efforts on Charlottesville this weekend. As reported by Variety, Google has been forced to cancel an upcoming town hall meeting on diversity issues after a number of employees’ expressed concerns about their safety. Apparently, people on the internet had begun specifically calling out Google employees by name in attempt to scare them into not speaking up about the importance of diversity at the meeting, so rather than risk having frightened employees, the company has simply canceled the meeting completely.
