The funny thing is that the supervisors will probably be overwhelmed with all the reports and won’t check to see if they are accurate or do anything with them.

Apparently the info will be fed to someone’s LLM. Can’t imagine what these galaxy brain geniuses think they’ll be able to do with it. I’m a bit curious about who developed this LLM though.

If it wasn't to be an attention whore (or troll), then why did he post it on Twitter?


He’s being transparent. They’ve said all along that they want full transparency. That’s why they set up a website for you to see what they’re doing.

No, there are some posts that are there for informational purposes. There are some that are there for attention whoring. There was no "need" for that post other than to troll/attention whore/brag/whatever you want to call it. The people who the email was directed at, received the email. There was no reason to tweet about it other than to rile people up on one side or the other, which is pretty much the definition of attention whoring


I receive hundreds of emails every day. Sometimes email isn’t the best for of communication. Welcome to the corporate world.

Posting it on twitter is better than just emailing them?

It was done for attention whoring and “rah rah, frick the federal government employees!”. It was to sew division. If you can’t see that, then open your eyes.

You want transparency, then send the email, mean it, fire the employees that didn’t comply and report that you fired X amount of employees because they didn’t follow the “rules”. Posting it before actually taking any action was done just to troll, attention whore, etc…

Is hitting the keys EXTRA hard going to help people see the email?

There was a way to accomplish this without it becoming a complete shitshow, via agency heads through the chain of command. But that’s not what Elon was wanting to accomplish, he was just out there tism’ing out on twitter.

Cool. I don’t give a shite about optics. Just give me the results. We spent the last four years “doing things the right way” without ever accomplishing anything.

If that tweet helped convince someone to do what they need to keep their job….then that’s great. If it did nothing….then I really don’t care.

Is he though? He said to send the email or you’re fired, today it was said that it’s up to the discretion of the agency heads whether or not the emails need to be sent. Is that being transparent or talking out of his arse?

If you are a government worker, you think they didn't know to watch for this email? If you miss this as a government worker, that's on you or quite possibly, do not exist. That's one of the things he's looking for.

My point is that Elon apparently does care about optics, because that’s all this whole email bullshite was, optics.

Sure you did. Or perhaps did not vote at all - am I right? I bet so.

You're absolutely correct.....which is why he even tweeted that this is more of a pulse check than anything.
