A bunch of SpaceX workers previously penned the open letter criticizing CEO Elon Musk and the company while identify themselves as “employees across the spectra of gender, ethnicity, seniority, and technical roles.”
SpaceX fired them, lol.
New York Post – […] SpaceX president and Musk ally Gwynne Shotwell said in a memo that the firm had “terminated a number of employees involved” in crafting the letter – noting the workers in question had “upset many” with an “unsolicited request” to add their signatures.
“The letter, solicitations and general process made employees feel uncomfortable, intimidated and bullied, and/or angry because the letter pressured them to sign onto something that did not reflect their views,” Shotwell said in the memo, which was obtained by The Verge.
Shotwell referred to the open letter campaign within the company as “unacceptable” and said the workers were fired after an investigation into their actions. The number of employees terminated wasn’t immediately clear. “We have too much critical work to accomplish and no need for this kind of overreaching activism,” Shotwell added. (read more)
We need more of this.
Sounds a lot like BLM/Antifa.
Let this be a clear warning to twatter employees. 😉
Bet they didn’t see that coming.
“Unintended consequences” are not a strongpoint of liberal thinking.
True of all do-gooder/busybodies. No one is omniscient. The road to hell is paved . . .
…paved with recycled Teslas and their virtue-signaling owners. 😂
The burnt remains of the owners.
Not only do you save on gas, but you get free cremation with every Tesla you buy… whether you want it or not.
😉
And here they told us that lithium is calming.
🤣
‘Course, they also leave a significant carbon foolprint (not a misspelling).
HOW TRUE!!!!!!
In most cases, what we see of their “unintended consequences” are actually intended consequences.
The wiliest ones are still there, like the .01% of germs that the sanitizer leaves alive.
They never tell you what germs are not killed. Those .01% of germs are the deadliest so what is the sense of using sanitizers?
Plus, the sanitizer is deadly and passes into the bloodstream – weakening natural immunity and needing cleansing through liver, kidneys, lungs . . . It’s all another psyop to terrorize the populace into complying with every bit of [political] science from certified “experts”. The permament mommy, Big Nurse, salvation via senate.
Awwww….now I’ve got the sadz.
Soyboy employees thought they were the boss.
You’re not in kindergarten anymore.
When you try to tip over the table, you get sent to the corner.
But muh participation trophy!
Yeah, they were so sure of themselves and their “virtue” the thought never crossed their minds that their jobs might be in danger. Well Done, Elon.
In other words they are dumb asses.
That is how it is done, they if they had any idea of principle or ethics would not have ever done this. They got what was deserved and right. Start your own business and do stupid stuff.
These are the types of characteristics of the Liberal hive, group thinkers who are busily trying to destroy everything good and wholesome in our society. So yeah, fire them if you mistakenly hired them before they destroy your businesses, communities, civilization . . .
“But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!” ~ 2 Timothy 3.1-5
“Little children, it is the last hour, and as you heard that Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have arisen. By this we know that it is the final hour. They went out from us, but they didn’t belong to us; for if they had belonged to us, they would have continued with us. But they left, that they might be revealed that none of them belong to us. But you, anointed are set apart from them, and know the truth.” ~ 1 John 2.18-20 (et al: Parable of the Tares and Wheat)
Indeed. Along similar lines, it appears that biblical scholars have recently reinterpreted the meaning of 666 from St. John’s Apocalypse to be the cost of a gallon of gas during the end times.
Now that deserves a drum roll!! Very clever indeed.
LOL. A good one.
in the near future we will be wishing it were only $6.66 / gal
I know O’Reilly was controlled opposition when he interviewed Obama during his first run – all soft ball questions- last time I ever watched O’Reilly. And the first time I really paid attention to Obama was his Denver Speech – decked out like a Greek god’s Temple, or Caesar’s Palace. Watched the speech – and immediately I said to myself: This is the Anti-Christ.
Now, I’ve written a serious commentary on Revelation. 420 pages.
But when I’ve posted the occasional quote here as it relates to the current times, I’ve had almost no responses. This truly shocked me.
Now I know both the Catholic Church, and the reformed Protestant Churches that separated from it, generally do not like Revelation, and do everything to avoid it – after all it was controversial in the beginning such that it wasn’t added to the Bible until 397 or 419 AD, depending on your source. This was the only Bible Book that Calvin never wrote a commentary on – as he said, he “didn’t understand it.” Martin Luther ignored it, saying that it “was too Jewish.”
What is happening today is clearly leading to the Great Tribulation. Our only “hope” is in the Lord’s return – not Trump, or the courts, or hope porn about good guy’s working in secret, or over-turning the steal, or a violent civil war. Only Jesus’ return is our hope. In the mean time we fight the good battle, but as Revelation says: “He (the Beast from out of the sea, i.e. the Anti-christ) was given power to make war with the saints, and overcome them.” Please note it doesn’t say kill all of them at that time. We are in the initial stages of being “overcome.” The last phase occurs when “the Beast out of the earth (the false prophet)” causes everyone to worship the first beast (who was given power by the Dragon – the Devil, thus a Devil worshiper). They force everyone to receive the Mark of the Beast, “so the no one could buy or sell without the Mark;” and to worship him (the Image of the Beast, an erected idol – just like the Caesars were), and anyone not doing this was to be “killed.”
We are powerless to change this. Our only hope is in the Lord. “Vengeance is mine sayeth the Lord – I will repay.” “Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord.” This requires true faith (also, rendered Trust) in the Lord, our God.
Blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony…Overcomers!
Every hive has a hive mind. Collective “thought” (really, the abandonment of thought, replaced by Pavlovian reaction) pervades every group “identity”. Those who seek to rule humanity always use every tool at their disposal to herd us into opposing sides – divide and conquer. Everyone is without doubt that their chosen side is the correct one, and history always repeats, leaving the conquerors in place. This time is no different.
Wow…who would have thought that I was onto the Truth? I have always held that I wouldn’t be part of any group that would have me as a member!
Love that line.
“When you’re in jail, a good friend will be trying to bail you out. A best friend will be in the cell next to you saying, ‘Damn, that was fun’.”

A noble response and not without merit however as with the vast majority of sincere”Christians”your purely secular viewpoint entirely misses the point.
Scripturally speaking we are living in a story that has lasted an age. There is a beginning and an end. The Word (the conscious ability to communicate, to function as it were) is from another dimension, it is supernatural and eternal. Given by a God of love in order to reconcile his creation to himself.
Until a person realizes the need for salvation, recognizes the Fallen state of every person born from Adam that person will continue to walk by his five senses eventually stumbling around in darkness and doing the will of the God of this World (sic).
As to the folks that concocted their grievance letter. They make a fine example of the difference between being smart and being intelligent, between having understanding and having wisdom. In other words their dumb s****

I have no idea what you are responding to.
The anti-bellum part of that brain cartoon sounds good. What would the Prince of Peace say?
maybe… “depart from me. I never knew you.”?
So, in other words, “Cursed are the warmakers.”?
Good guess!
What wonderful news for a Friday afternoon….

Musk has avoided larding up his companies with the refuse produced by the credential mill we call higher education. The most important thing for starting and maintaining any company is creating a culture a productivity and then preserving it at any cost. Jack Welch talks about it extensively in his book, Winning. Showing toxic people the door as quickly as you can identify them is crucial. That’s why the Biden Administration hates him so much. Equality all day long, no room whatsoever for equity. That’s a few people at one company. Give it a little time. It’s going to be millions across the board.
Musk has stated he doesn’t give a d@mn about your college degree. He only cares about your real technical know how and work ethic.
The late CEO “Ace” Greenberg, of the late Bear Stearns, said the same. His books of notes talk about hungry and smart over MBA. He joked that if a prospective employee had an MBA, the company would not hold it against them.
The Three Degrees: BS, MS, PhD = BullShyte, MoreShyte, and Piled higher n’ Deeper
the real Bachelor’s degree that would qualify under your definition of BS is BA as it is theoretical whereas a BS is a Bachelor of SCIENCE which is what all engineers get because it is grounded in EMPIRICAL science
The problem is that an MBA learns textbook theory & standard application courses that are colored by both the course instructor and the particular textbook(s) assigned.
Once out into the real world, one discovers that each company has developed its own preferred accounting styles, processes, and business processes. They frequently do NOT match a lot of what’s taught in the college classroom. And the company has to train the new employee in their proprietary practices, while trying to have the employee un-learn what they learned in college.
I obtained my MBA via 3 years in night school, after being employed for over two decades (my employer also paid for my BS in Engineering which was obtained via 7 years in night school 15 years before my MBA). My point is that while I was taking the courses, I already had knowledge of how my company handled the subject matter in real practice, so I think I got even more out of the courses by knowing the practical application.
Good for him. That’s a view I came to embrace decades ago when I emigrated. Until then I was led to believe a degree was essential, and I have one.
Then after I moved, I discovered that some of the smartest people I ever met with all sorts of invaluable skills had never seen the inside of a university. In fact, I married one of those “uncredentialed, well educated” chaps.
I don’t know how many people are aware that Mark Steyn, possibly one of the most educated men working today, does not have a degree… and I doubt those getting one today could stand and debate him on any topic and not leave the stage crying.
Musk is one hundred percent correct.
It is good to see somebody draw a line in the sand. To show some courage.
Needed everywhere. I was the only customer who refused to wear a mask at the local supermarket. I checked the state laws and the corporate policy and ignored every attempt to coerce me.

Why replace cancer…. stealing that one….thank you!

“Work in classrooms isn’t significant work; it fails to satisfy real needs pressing on the individual; it doesn’t answer real questions experience raises in the young mind; it doesn’t contribute to solving any problem encountered in actual life. The net effect of making all schoolwork external to individual longings, experiences, questions, and problems is to render the victim listless.”
― John Taylor Gatto, The Underground History of American Education: An Intimate Investigation Into the Prison of Modern Schooling
https://www.goodreads.com/author/quotes/41319.John_Taylor_Gatto#:~:text=%E2%80%9CI%20feel%20ashamed%20that%20so,self%2Dreliant%20and%20free.%E2%80%9D
Again, YES, AND THANK YOU!!!
I never understood why Gatto was so ignored by intelligent people who should have been his allies and supporters even just for logical, practical application!
Thank you!
People have vested interests, including ego, that keeps them maintaining the status quo. Earth is one big whorehouse.
No arguing with that!
John Taylor Gatto’s quote sounds exactly like something I would expect to hear from a liberal 2+2=5 Wokey!
Well, you’re clueless then, and not well-read. Right/conservative/libertarian and Christian types are the great majority of his followers and most of homeschoolers. Reading really is fundamental, bro. Do some today. Or maybe this site has its own .gov troll infestation like every site fighting the power.
You can find out whether you’re right about that or not. Do. Please.
Interestingly, Gatto was a liberal…of the old fashioned kind.
Meaning, he was for LIBERTY, not any form of “government”/rulership by anyone over anyone else.
It looks like the communist brain was revised a little. I think it is a complicated science. There is more nonsense to be found there yet
Good on Elon, as well as the CEO of Kraken, who is flushing the woke turds. It is a beautiful start of a hopefully massive trend!
No Musk, no Spacex.
No Musk, no reusable rockets. No breaking of the 50 years of dead future due to NASA costs killing everything it tried including the Space Shuttle. The shuttle was originally supposed to fly once per week at a cost of $15 million per launch. It wound up flying twice per year at $1 billion per launch.
The entire aerospace industry was good with that. That was the SCIENCE. The very idea of cutting space launch costs down to where eventually it would be within reach of normal people was rejected outright and the usual dirty tricks used to keep it that way.
The Artemis moon program and the SLS rocket will cost $2 billion for every launch. Nothing can afford a price like that. If Musk succeeds with his Starship project, he will drive launch price down to $2 million per launch. A factor of 1000 times less. It is Musk who is driving all of this. Without Musk, Spacex would lose all its investors and technical focus. The future would again vanish into the distance beyond the lifetime of anyone alive.
Costs involved with NASA are all useless personnel porking out the payroll. Look at General Motors. Same thing. People with engineering degrees, and zero idea how to engineer anything. Look at electric cars. Most important thing is getting range out of a battery. Only two ways to do that. Weight savings, and aerodynamics. Why do you think Tesla has never updated the Model S? Aerodynamics doesn’t change. With that in mind, remember General Motors first electric vehicle announcement. Electric Hummer. A 12,000 pound car with the aerodynamics of a brick. And not one person smart enough at General Motors to say, maybe this isn’t such a good idea
The smart people stay quiet or get smacked down by the hubristic fools in charge.
Groupthink.
Smart people give up and just go through the motions, to pay the bills.
Leaders want to sell an electric Hummer? So what, let ’em fall on their own sword, last guy who pointed out their folly got thrown under the bus.
Wanna see that on steroids? Look at government.
According to Jordan Peterson, 10% of employees in any company do most of the work. Those fired by Elon Musk will likely not be missed.
He said that studies show that 20% of employees do 80% of the work.
I stand corrected. The idea still has resonance, though, in this context.
NASA turned into a giant self-licking ice cream cone after Apollo.
EEO quotas as the primary priority in a government agency.
Same thing we should do to all our letter writing Congress people.
Except they also need to be prosecuted and their ill-gotten gains liquidated and repaid.
Except Senator Ron Johnson from WI who writes letters on behalf of many Vaccine Injured and is ignored by all of the woke bureaucrats wearing fake uniforms as well as fake ribbons with those dangling things attached.
And Rand Paul and Thomas Massie and Ron DeSantis and Marjorie Taylor Greene and Tulsi Gabbard . . . but the system is the problem – too many believe we need it.
Tulsi Gabbard?
Yes. Forget the “D” after her name and look at what she actually says and does and believes.
She’s a WEF graduate. No thanks.
Haven’t you noticed recently that more and more WEF graduates are actively undermining that whole rotten outfit?!
It IS possible to “graduate” from something and NOT buy into the propaganda.
How many here at this site graduated from “free” government “schools” and YET have awakened from their indoctrination to fight against the evil monsters who presume to rule and rob us, those very same propagandists who indoctrinated us in those “schools”?!
Look at words and works. Gabbard’s are decidedly NOT those of the WEF.
Why do you think she’s been sidelined and all but “disappeared”?!
According to the poster, TeeitorTradeit, I am wrong about Tulsi Gabbard, and therefore I apologize. I should have looked more closely at her record.
Still, she’s not blindly parroting her WEF indoctrination, and TPTB have pretty much sidelined her for it.
At any rate, there are better, non-WEF people we should be not so hasty to throw out with the dirty bathwater, whom Birdbrain pointed out.
What’s the question?
Yes: “too many believe we need it.”
What is up with that, anyway? Can anyone say WHY we NEED to be ruled and robbed and enslaved by anyone else?!
Right? If someone wants to pay a dominatrix for a private visit that’s fine, but .gov makes you pay for unwanted services rendered – such as forced vaxxes, forced military service, forcibly removing your kid because you “misgender” them/they/that, etc.
We taxpayers are paying to be ruled by a permanent, wildly metastasizing bureaucracy. Time to reinstate that long lost policy of culling the herd by not replacing government workers who leave. We also need to take a look at the practice of expanding government by layering new regional “commissions” and such on top of existing local, state and national staff. It would be interesting to know what percent of the population is employed by government versus those working in private business. It’s unimaginable how well off average workers could be if not burdened by the upkeep of our politicians and their minions. To say nothing of cutting the costs of our foreign entanglements. So much wealth stolen and wasted!
Beware of Tulsi Gabbard
Yes. Given her press, people need to be reminded of where she really sits on most important issues.
Hmmm.
Looks like I need to take a deeper look.
Until then, I stand corrected. Thank you.
But Birdbrain’s largely correct.
Ultimately, WHY do we believe we NEED “government,” and WHY do we believe that it would all be all right IF ONLY the “correct” people were running us and not the current criminals?
That’s really the important issue. Fact is, no human being has a right to rule any other human being. And no human being is qualified to rule any other human being (parents over their children, of course, excepted). Why don’t we see this, no matter who’s a member of what?
How about foreign countries too. Write letters and slam us however much you want but there is a cost, and that cost is ALL your American tax dollars will be stopped.
Wokestani Immunity has been canceled
Sounds like they got AWOKEN
it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know if you bad mouth the owner of the company, you will get fired. I don’t agree with my employers woke actions. I need a job more than I need to make a statement. Since I’m not being asked to do something immoral, illegal, or unethical, I do my job and shut my mouth.
if I’m ever asked to betray my faith or my beliefs, then I speak.
Since “wokeness” can’t be cured, any more than “climate panic”, best to fire them before they wreck the business!
Thats what President Trump should have done to the swamp when he had a chance.
I was sure he was planning on it for his second term but too damn late.
President Trump was betrayed by almost everyone including his pretentious daughter.
He seems to have largely reinforced the swamp, fortifying it with folks he must have known were part of the problem. And has yet to repudiate the vaxx.
EVERYONE who President Trump could have legally fired, should have been fired on the first day of his presidency. Everyone he could not fire should have been transferred to their new office in Backofbeyond, Alaska.
Transfer to DETROIT would be better!
I live in Alaska
I nominate Bikini Atoll for the transferees…
M Varr is right, Detroit is a MUCH more dire destination.
For a man who built his reputation on savvy judge of character and “You’re Fired,” he didn’t seem that stellar once he got into office.
There’s no way the rest of us could see so clearly what he evidently could not. And in his vaunted “Art of the Deal,” where is it advised to wait until you MIGHT be given a second chance to do what should have been done in the first place?!
I “loved” him for being rogue and a rogue, but . . . !!!
Coulda blown me away with a feather!
(And no way was it “because” he just woke up one day and realized he was surrounded by obstructionists and enemies. Again, why didn’t he see right off what the rest of us saw, and watched in excruciating slow motion as he shed his fangs and claws and BETRAYED HIS BASE?! Blind loyalty by some in that base is NOT a virtue. The Bible warns us who claim to follow it NOT to put our trust in any MAN, EVEN a prince.)
Hmmm..
Dont recall you being a long time CTH poster….
New name, ( unless Ive missed you)
Anti-Trump= Check.
Using the word ” but ” = Check.
Using his daughter as an example of his own actions= Check.
Didnt seem ” stellar “= Check.
Insinuate ” he ” didnt see anything “= Check.
Obvious concern troll is obvious. You people are so easy to spot…lol.
Nice try though, rookie….
So . . . unless one is a “long time” CTH poster, this site is off limits?! That’s the only criterion for posting here? Nice. Way to grow!
Not.
Please point out where I mentioned Trump’s daughter — or any other member of his family, must less as an example of his own actions? Perhaps it’s telling that “his own actions” were just like hers?
If Trump “saw anything,” and knew it was bad, as we who supported him into the WH to CORRECT the bad stuff, did, why didn’t he do what needed to be done then and there?
“Anti-Trump” just for telling the truth about him? Yeah. That’s what got Jesus hung on that cross, too: telling the truth about people, especially people in power.
The word “but” is in the all dictionaries, always has been, always will be. Because you can’t construct a rational argument, have a rational discussion, tell the truth about anything, comparing and contrasting, without using it. So exactly what is wrong with “using the word ‘but'”?
“Obvious concern troll is obvious.” Do you see what’s wrong with that sentence?
What exactly is a “concern troll”? Until very recently (like in the last couple of weeks or so) I’d never heard the term. It seems to be a made-up term to disparage a comment that, or commenter who, makes truthful points you don’t like and can’t honestly address or counter. As here.
Everyone starts somewhere. “Rookie” is a term used to try to assert superiority over someone you used to be, trying to deny your own original newness.
The Bible tells us not to disparage those who love His truth as children. The Bible tells us not to put our trust in any man, even a prince. Surely you know the Word of God does? And you know it well enough to know where those passages are found, and what they refer to in context, right?
🙂
Not buying it…… carry on…..
( If you dont know what a concern troll is, you are pretending not to know things, which is a common theme amongst your ilk. )
Do yourself a favor, and try not to dissect every word posted, and pretend harder, not to understand what you are being told.
Bringing God into your misunderstanding doesn’t move my BS meter. But do keep trying…lol.
You are an Anti Trump Concern Troll pal….
I assert no superiority over you, other than I believe you are full of it…….
You are not the 1st concern troll, smash mouthing Trump, but you certainly are new to this game and place. I aint buying what yer sellin hoss.
But do keep writing us novels to defend your Anti Trump nonsense.
( And no, there is 0 wrong with that sentence you repeated. I see nothing wrong with calling you an obvious concern troll. I calls em likes I sees em….
If that butthurts you, tough noogies. There are many such as you, that just happened to come here lately, and spew the concern troll nonsense.
Long winded defenses with your big shiny words and pretending to not understand is a singular and common trait you all have.
You are a fail troll IMHO. If Im wrong, that is ok too.. 🙂
Pffftt!!!! LOLOLOL!!!!
“Big shiny words”!!!! LOLOLOLOL!!!
Your opinion is far from anything resembling “humble.”
You do not address a single point I make. You spew nonsense at me, personally. You take umbrage with me personally because I’m not blind to reality, and would actually like to see other people dare to remove their chosen blinders.
But I’m the troll.
LOLOLOLOL!!!!!
Taking out the trash.
As a former business owner, I came to love firing people. I learned I often waited too long before firing an employee. Then I realized when replacing that fired person, I could easily find a better replacement because I had learned my lesson and what I really needed in that position, it was the best decision for my company and that former employee.
Musk knows the same reality and he most certainly practices his rights. Why he dated Amber Heard…well, that’s another conversation we don’t need. Nobody is perfect, not even Trump…but he likes to fire people too. I like both of these men!
Mr Trump didn’t fire nearly enough in his administration.
AMEN!!!
Weird that he trained us so well to recognize sleaze, incompetence, unreliability and betrayal, but he didn’t demonstrate any of it while in office.
Like there were really two different men, one brilliant in print and on his TV show, the other once in the WH, not so much.
He trusted plausible people, when in fact they were charlatans and Traitors wth a capital T.
I was surprised that as soon as he was inaugurated and was tipped off the WH was bugged, necessitating moving to Bedminster, the penny didn’t drop. Based on that alone, his Spidey senses should have kicked in. Alas, they did not, and the Fourth Branch did their worst.
Oh for a do over…sigh.
“plausible people.” Yeah sure.
Not. Nor “Spidey senses.” He should have listened to the people trying to warn him. Long before the parties and inauguration and installments. Every single one should have had Suspicious Cat locked in a closed room with fangs and claws bared and interrogated to exhaustion. He knew most of those people were hold-overs from Bush and Obama; he knew the Clintons were never to be trusted, ever, with anything. He should have vetted thoroughly every single person, disallowing exceptions for family, and been ruthless about networks, contacts, history, and every single other thing. He was not. His WHOLE SCHTICK was his character and business acumen.
He closed his eyes.
That’s a charitable statement.
Sigh…..
Yes, of course. You could do better though? Right?
With the entirety of DC against you, fighting you tooth and nail for every word spoken and every action taken. Of course, you would rescue us from the bad people, because you are oh, so much smarter. I’m sure you would have figured out a way to fight these fascists inside Government, and fire them all, with ” all ” of your supporters, supporting you, getting rid of half the sitting Sens and Congress critters? Right? Like, we totally believe you alone, could fight the Deep State successfully, with your entire party backing you……..even when they threaten you with 1000 different things, of course, YOU would get it done, well because you are so much more intelligent with these these than President Trump…..
I got a suggestion for you….
Get over yourself. And get back to reality, Captain Concern Troll…….
So . . . what, exactly, was Trump put in office for, if not to get that wrecking ball swinging and knocking down those RINO deep state edifices?
What exactly is “our” “government” and why are you so helpless in the face of it, yet so anxious to preserve it?
If Trump couldn’t do it that time, how can he do it any time? Are things improved such that he — or anyone — can?
Why do you NEED to be “governed” and ruled and robbed and forced to obey or else? If you see a way out and through this morass, why aren’t you leading? Why are you seeing Trump as the only one to take on this gang of thieves and butchers writ large?
As to your challenge of what if it were me, yes I can offer something much better, and it only takes truthful, intelligent, problem-solving rationality to get out of this mess and prevent it again: dissolve “government.”
Walk away from it. Stop feeding it. Live freely, in dignity and mutuality and cooperation with your equally free neighbor. In private property, production, and peace, prosper.
Have you ever read Lysander Spooner? If not, and if you truly want this evil tyranny of the malevolent few over all the rest of us to end, look him up online. Read his works. See if there isn’t, in fact, a way to achieve what you claim to want, what you believe Mr. Trump can achieve for the rest of us helpless people.
Who has a right to rule other human beings?
Who is qualified to rule other human beings?
Who says so, and why?
On the other hand, what does God tell us in His Word? (For instance, Samuel 8.)
Who should we listen to and follow? Why?
Yup, my BS meter just increased exponentially, reading this tripe you posted.
Try harder Captain Concern Troll…..LMAO!
Oh man, you are easy to rile up son. This is your Achilles heel, all of you concern trolls. You just spewed a pile of hoss puckey, assuming I need something…to feel better…..and that I like being robbed, ruled and forced to do things.
Your troll skills are weak boy….
So . . . you DO desperately NEED to preserve “our” government so that you can continue being ruled, robbed, and forced to do things. AND, you believe the rest of us should too. And YOUR B.S. meter is pegging?!
Yeah.
Well, thanks.
Two lessons:
Years ago Richard Irish wrote the book: “If things don’t improve soon I may ask you to fire me” !!
First chapter was on firing. If you don’t make room for new talent you’ll never have an excellent team.
Employers often make a hire for a multitude of good reasons. Then there is a struggle for the new employee to fit in. President Lincoln hired several generals to command the Army of the Potomic — all failures. Then he hired the business failure / drinker who had the one chosen talent — Grant, who always took his men south to the fight.
I know people who run small businesses, and one of the most destructive elements is even a single poisonous person who can contaminate the whole operation. They also learned to spot them and get rid of them quickly after the first debacle. In one instance, a smoothly running enterprise had to be significantly reorganized because of the damage done by one malevolent personality.
What is it the left likes to say…
Oh yeah..
Start your own Space company.

During today’s Falcon 9 launch broadcast from Florida, they aired an LA Pride solidarity segment showing a Spacex employee group carrying a Spacex banner. The announcer exhorted the viewers to — send the LGBTQ+ community some love, if you haven’t already. (see at 5:52 ). First time, as I recall. Usually video plugs during SpaceX launch coverage are for customer payloads
I wonder if anyone was in that group was fired. I thought it strange they would slip in such political messaging into their launch broadcast. My bet is that some of the same people who were fired had a hand in slipping in that message and they’re either gone or soon to be.
A hearty chuckle and congratulations to SpaceX!!
In the environment I grew up in and worked in my entire career, your employment was based on PERFORMANCE. And you didn’t go around criticizing leadership. You got another freakin’ job if you didn’t like it. I never understood where all these self-entitled people felt they had the right to literally bite the hand that provided the paycheck. I’m not talking about putting up with real harassment (physical or sexual) – but even then, just leave if you don’t like it. I’m so sick of people acting like they’re “trapped” and subject to “micro-aggressions”, etc. It’s a free country! You’re not “entitled” to anything. I’d love nothing more than to see Corporations lay off all the “equity and diversity” divisions on the first round of layoffs.

It’s just like Walter said. There’s nothing to be afraid of. These men are nihilists. They’re cowards.
Indeed they are.
The leftist clowns are useless to us as a society. Beta male clowns, one and all.
These blowhard scholars and ” experts ” are only good at hearing themselves talk.
They dont build anything. Invent anything. Engineer anything. Design anything. Fix anything. They dont have any skills, but moving their lips, to hear themselves bloviate.
Existing as a blowhard coward is no way to go through life……
Seriously, it’s time to stop asking how stupid people can be because some of them are taking it as a challenge!!!
You don’t put other employees on the spot by asking them to sign something. If they agree, fine, but if they don’t you are just making them very uncomfortable. No one should have to tolerate that at work from fellow employees. It’s bad enough when it’s management policies. At least then you are getting paid by them.
The ones who were somehow coerced to sign were very immature adults. Good riddance!
Many of us go to work to get away from BS like that, in our lives or at home.
The last thing anyone needs is to go to work and deal with crybaby whiners all day.
“You’re fired. Go pretend to work for someone else.”
Shot well fired good
F em
I’m sure they are shocked. They are the employees across the spectra of gender. Now they are the unemployed and can give some thought if they will put male or female on their next job application
Good. I don’t know why woke employees think a company “belongs to them” and that they have the right to disrespect or control the behavior of their owner boss for perceived wrong think.
Because they are socialists, and DO believe the company belongs to them. That’s the point of Marxism/socialism/fascism.

Great News!
One thing I learned in the U.S. Army was never to volunteer for anything. Stay in the background and cruise your way through without drawing unwanted attention.
Getting noticed got you grass drills, fire guard, and k.p. duty.
I was a fat boy and drew enough attention as it was.
Even though I wasn’t allowed, I always grabbed dessert. Getting hollered at for that was better than the many physical punishments they dished out for other offenses.
I remember more from those 3 years than the past 32. Such an intense time.
If you served, I salute you!

Just finished a book on an Ukrainian survivor of a Russian prison camp during WWII. He survived because he carefully avoided attention. That was his father-in-laws advice after he escaped from the Siberian Gulag.
Escaping is good, but shutting it down is better:

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?… The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If…if…We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation…. We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

I served and a “salute” right back at ya!

So glad to see the woke people being dealt with, including shown to the exit door by their now former employers. Netflix is starting to get with the program, telling employees to seek employment elsewhere if they aren’t happy with the way the company is being run, especially over the Dave Chappelle blowup. The arrogance coming from employees who think they have the right to tell the owner(s) of a company how they should be running it both amazes and angers me. If an employee isn’t happy with their employer or working conditions, the best solution is to go elsewhere, not make demands to run the company how they feel it should be run.
I have a strong feeling that after Mr. Musk finishes conducting his audit of Twatter, that his offer will be changed to a lower amount, or he’ll back out entirely if fraud is discovered in regards to their earnings report that include subscriber numbers, which I highly suspect is likely. Should that happen, the BOD can’t claim ignorance, and that includes Jack Dorsey, because the Sarbanes Oxley act makes them liable for any wrongdoings the company may involved in.
I think many of these woketard activist former employees are all but unemployable, they will have to explain why they were fired or walked out.
Musk is setting a clear example for many companies that there is a line and the responsibility for the well being and health of a company rests solely with the CEO and BOD leadership teams.
Many of these snowflakes have ruined their careers and they don’t even know it.
did Musk bait the woke employees with this “anonymous” letter to draw them out? He’s very good at that. Look what he did to twitter.
I say we celebrate the rest of the employees who resisted the Marxist organizers, who no doubt pressured them by saying only racists would disagree. The is an important battlefront for America.
If only more leftists would make their voices heard, America could get by without even replacing them. Unfortunately, these workers will probably go get a gubbmint job now because nobody gets fired from there!
Fricken hilarious.
Spacex is OWNED by Musk. It’s private.
You don’t like how he does it, then build your own Spacex. What’s the problem?
We need a LOT more of this. The minority of woke nut jobs have had too much power for far too long.
Think anyone at Twitter got the message?
I think they did. There are some employees at Twatter who are threatening to leave the company if Musk takes it over. To them I say, “Buh-Bye, and don’t let the door hit you on the way out!”.
Free speech has consequences. Ooopsies!
Your employer isn’t required to put up with it on their time or their equipment. It’s past time for reminders & somebody had to be the “fall guys.”
I love it when wokesters get woke.
