Most leftists I see are just enjoying the fire….it’s this site and other conservative sites that seem to be performatively fellating and LARP’ing their Musk fantasies.

Musk bought a shite business and is trying to demand the people he needs to keep the lights on to work harder and longer for a restructuring that is axing their colleagues for a vision that is not being articulated(if there even is one) …we’ll see how that goes for him.

You all projecting way deeper than that though. Like I said, I’m not here to compete for Elon’s heart with you, just know, he’s still not gonna frick you…
Holy
frick
Dude

I’ve probably never seen the level of projection that you’ve shown the last couple days. Your lack of self awareness is shocking.

Again, I ask...

What specific knowledge do you and other leftists have that all of us do not in regards to the plan and direction of Twitter now that it is not in your control?

Like all leftists, you are great at hurling insults and creating straw men, but you have yet to point to a specific business methodology that the new team is using.

Just word of advice, Elon’s not secretly lurking this site and he’s not gonna frick you, so you can stop trying to performatively suck him off and snapping at every critic like they are coming for your boo…

Dude's gonna figure out how to run Twitter with a couple of hundred engineers, and it will make the rest of Big Tech companies go, "Never thought that was possible", isn't he?


Well this is how tech companies start and were ran for most of the 2000s. Lean and mean.

Now they are filled with do nothing wokesters.

In this instance Twitter was essentially acting like a branch of the government pushing certain narratives and agendas.

Even if both orgs are doing the same thing only Twitter is supposed to be turning a profit. It just doesn’t seem like a good comparison when the overall goals are so different.

He needs to dangle the real carrot. Whomever stays and proves to be a hustler is probably gonna get a frickton more money.

Here's how you know when an Elon company has reached maximum Elon status: When the employees that are left are making twice as much as they were, 75% of the bloat has been cut away and twitter is functioning like a machine - the media will finally shut the frick up about it.

That's when you'll know.

In the end, the real programmers who have the chops and confidence are seeing this as a huge opportunity to climb that ladder. Every barrier that was ever in their way has been removed, and now is the time to make a statement. Yes, people are pissed, but in the end we each live our own lives and take the opportunities afforded us.

At this point all he has left are the H1-B employees who are sticking around until they get a new job.

Never said I did, but neither do the employees or Musk apparently, and that’s a problem when you are giving ultimatums to in-demand engineers to sacrifice at your boss’s alter.

A pipe fitter or welder with far less job security wouldn’t put up with that shite, why do you imagine vet software engineers that can go across the street and make 175k would either?

I’m not saying you are necessarily wrong here but the imagination to manifest these specific scenarios some of y’all come up with in your minds is downright impressive.

Silicon Valley is currently in the midst of a number of layoffs, so I think there will be plenty of equivalently capable engineers that will take the money if there are jobs to be posted.
