Nah he has brainrot. He deadnamed and misgendered Rebecca Heinemann in his eulogy of her. Transphobia seems to really make people worse at thinking.
(Not a big shock considering how bad his answer was towards the 'epic own' of the person asking him if he would hire more women. (He said: "we are having a hard time hiring all the people that we want. It doesn’t matter what they look like.", which sounds like a great own, but leaves one big question. Why aren't you trying to educate more people in what you want then? What are you doing to fix that problem if it is such a big problem for you? (which then leads to, how will you ensure that this teaching system has women in it, etc)))
