      This 'memo' was posted in an appropriate place. No-one else was fired for talking abt diversity in a group for talking about diversity.

      Really alarming the number of people who have said - 'It's OK to have those views. He shouldn't have talked about them.'

      Hypothetical - What if it was overtly sexist ie. "Woman are stupid .. here is why". Would that opinion deserve punishment? 1/2

      Okay I understand your stance on that one. what if it was "Jack's an idiot .. here is why" (Trying to gauge the line) 1/2

      This is a different issue. A difference between being rude to colleagues & expressing views on ways to handle diversity issues.

      I agree 100% - but somehow it has become conflated and people suggest James was rude. Where is that actual line?

      I'm not sure why there is difficulty seeing a line between calling people or groups names and presenting an idea.
