I'm disgusted with Palmer being an alt-right racist.
Worse, I hate the fact that GamerGate and it's even more reprehensible ally the alt-right have infested their racist and misogyinistic cancer beyond gaming and into the much broader field of VR through Palmer Luckey.
However, the most incomprehensible aspect of this entire dumpster fire is that Facebook and Oculus would allow this racist bigot to still have a senior position at their company that employs minorities, women and LGBT.
What in the hell are they thinking? Even if they agree with his disgusting politics, they are facing potentially massive lawsuits from their employees.
The example has been brought up before in this thread, but let's play it out again-
An African-American woman who has had exemplary reviews for 2 years doesn't get promoted, but a white man with 6 months experience gets the position she was hoping for.
Maybe the white guy showed more potential, worked harder, whatever. Maybe it was a totally valid call.
However, they have a proud racist in charge of the company.
How do they think this or any other similar situation is going to play out from now on?
