I can imagine it, but just a few really awful people. Google, like any company, will have some extreme right-wingers working for it. And, working for Google tends to go with big egos. I can imagine some dude looking at his stock options thinking "yes, all those useless people were holding down the value of my options, now that they're gone I'm going to be rich".
