Former Google Senior Software Engineer now martyr to political correctness and hero of the alt-right, James Damore is the softly-spoken yet controversial author of the 'Google memo', the infamous 10-page document in which he criticised the company's gender diversity policies. James is in favour of removing barriers to the tech sector for women, but he felt Google was going too far in its efforts for equal representation. The memo, titled 'Google's Ideological Echo Chamber: How Bias Clouds Our Thinking About Diversity and Inclusion', which he posted after attending a day-long diversity conference in July, went viral within Google, before being leaked to the media in August. Google's CEO Sundar Pichai subsequently fired James for breaching the company's Code of Conduct.

James is a self-described 'classical liberal' who was studying a PhD in Systems Biology at Harvard before being head-hunted by Google in 2013. In this interview, we discuss James' unique worldview, some of the discriminatory practices at Google, the day of his firing, and the secret black-list against employees kept by left-leaning Silicon Valley tech firms.
