The rebuttal is “these facts were cherry-picked to support the author’s interpretation of observable events.”

From the article:

“He also said that he himself was overlooked for a job that he was more qualified for, which was given to a woman.” If we start with a hypothesis of equal capability, his graph shows that women are being passed over for career opportunities in favor of less qualified men more often than the reverse is true. Facts don’t lie, but with subjective context they can be used to tell stories.
