Regarding 'only 100+ people out of 25,000 employees' comments - I would bet that the total number of employees who disagree with mainstream PC liberal views so prominent in our industry is about half, at least one third. However - most are choosing to stay quiet.
I am posting this anonymously as well. While I don't work at FB, I work at a 'hot tech startup', and cannot risk being 'outed' as a conservative. I would categorize my views as 'slightly right of center', very moderate, but it seems like anything not agreeing with Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders' socialism is equal to being called a 'nazi' in our industry.
I feel very sad about this state of affairs, and I applaud Mr. Amerige for his bravery to do this. I applaud everyone who chose to publicly join him in this effort, putting their careers and livelihoods at danger, risking never being employed in Silicon Valley again.
