An employer does not need to state reasons for firing an employee. Business is just business and it is just capitalism. Google is a business and it is a capitalist system. The employees making noise, should remain silent or else they can be fired for being disruptive.

If the employee had come out and publicly done what he did, then it is more cut/dry in your responce.

But from what I understand, this was an internal memo that another employee spread out to the rest of the world. The memo is his thought and ideas about what he see as a diversity problem in Google. Essentially he went to his superiors and told them of a problem he sees and get fired for it becaue someone else leaked this memo to the press? That is not OK.

And that is what oppresion, censorship and biases does...

Since we don't want a problem to be uncovered or want to correct it we will just fire the person who said it.
