We are privileged to share this letter:
As trans* Googlers & their allies, we feel silence is an inappropriate response to the recent events at Netflix & subsequent walkouts. In this letter, the opinions we express are entirely our own. #NetflixWalkout

Terminated worker here. Listen when employers tell you exactly who they are
McCarthyism is alive and well. Look how terrified they are of worker power 🔥
Solidarity always ✊ we'll keep us safe when we fight together

Google is terrified of us. @Google is terrified of workers calling for accountability and transparency from our bosses. These mass, illegal firings will not stop us. They only fuel the organic growth of this movement. #NimbusNine #GoogleworkersFired
Google on Wednesday fired 28 workers after dozens of employees participated in sit-ins at the company’s New York and California offices to protest the company’s cloud computing contract with the Israeli government. nyti.ms/44bojAL

Solidarity with these 28 workers✊🏽
Google has once again shown where its priorities lie, punishing workers for speaking out.
Tech workers: read this 🧵and then take action. We each have a role to play in breaking the links of complicity powering the genocide. #StopArmingIsrael

This evening, Google indiscriminately fired 28 workers, including those among us who did not directly participate in yesterday’s historic, bicoastal 10-hour sit-in protests. This flagrant act of retaliation is a clear indication that Google values its $1.2 billion contract..

I wonder which people we're discussing here. 🤔

I remember how Google treats its employees a bit differently... Would definitely not describe it as well or as being treated as a "complete human being".
Part of what Google does to workers is sell them this self image so when they are mistreated they will first blame themselves

Google treats you well*!
*if you're willing to toe the party line and not advocate for workers' rights, not fight against surveillance or military uses of their products, white supremacist hiring practices, and caste discrimination.
But other than that, sure.

This led to the end of an era...the last Google Walkout organizer has left the building
Longtime observers say it fits a familiar pattern at Google. Women of color are asked to advocate for change. Then they’re punished for disrupting the status quo. washingtonpost.com/technolog…

BREAKING: David beats Goliath! In a historic victory, Amazon workers in Staten Island win the first U.S. Amazon union.
@AmazonLabor and workers at the JFK8 warehouse overcame extreme union-busting to make history.

Chris Smalls, fired from Amazon almost two years ago to the day, just popped champagne outside the NLRB offices where he and his peers won one of the greatest labor victories in a generation. “To the first Amazon union in history,” he said.

Project Vivian started *right after* the walkout. Almost immediately. Google wants to spin the firings as unrelated to unions but that distinction doesn't make sense, isn't present in law, and isn't how they saw it when they started the union suppression project. 2/

Despite Google's absurd statement in the article, these latest document snippets are extremely vindicating for me. I've said for a while that companies like Google don't actually see a difference between "unionization" and organizing around issues. 1/
NEW: B/w 2018 and 2020, Google had a secret anti-union project described by an executive as an initiative to “convince [employees] that unions suck."
Part of this project included having a "respected voice" pen an anti-union oped about tech worker unions.
