Calling the lawsuit "counterproductive" is troubling as well as it almost sounds like they felt the situation was previously productive, i.e. moving in a positive direction.
The claims do bring back memories of being a middle schooler in the bay area, though. Kids can be quite unenlightened, predictably so if they aren't taught better. Parental and close familial norms also seem to play a significant role in shaping you children's attitudes.
Additionally, confederate flag tattoos flashed by colleagues at work? Really?
Inappropriate. This isn't the yard at San Quentin Federal Prison pressing and assembling y'alls' Teslas; this is claimed to be at the dear NUMI plant in Fremont, right alongside a very diverse and distinctive community. There's just no place for these things in real-life business.
