    ...then gets fired for having.... different ideas...

No, he got fired for breach of the Code of Conduct he signed. That was made clear in the CEO's post on the subject.

"To suggest a group of our colleagues have traits that make them less biologically suited to that work is offensive and not OK. It is contrary to our basic values and our Code of Conduct, which expects “each Googler to do their utmost to create a workplace culture that is free of harassment, intimidation, bias and unlawful discrimination.”

The CEO whom, incidentally, supports many of the things that the putz said in his screed.
