Seeing so many memes and jokes on Twitter and Reddit about Musk firing employees from Twitter. How is this funny? I’m all for memes and jokes but do they realize these are people with real lives? Musk and his fanboys are becoming my least favorite people. Also have seen some of this on Blind as well.

Go woke, go broke: Google fires 28 employees involved in pro-Hamas protest
It’s the Elon bros, what else can you expect?
Maybe we can get 100% attention from quip CEO again?!!
Yes, the toothbrush company
Because they were never needed. Users never asked for woke censorship
Do you think every Twitter employee pushed that?
Significant number employees actively participate in it. Others who work there passively supported it by creating the necessary tools for the active participants. I will never forget how they de-platformed a sitting US president. Irrespective of which end of the political spectrum you identify yourself with, that was an absolute overreach. Not to mention the daily shit show of shadow-banning accounts who don't agree with the woke agenda, arbitrary suspensions of accounts on frivolous grounds with no accountability.
American culture encourages individualism and cannibalistic behavior
Twitter is a symbol of the culture war on the “woke” side for many people, and Elon being “anti-woke” acquiring it and possibly gutting it feels like a victory for that side.
This is it. Nothing to do with tech hate, etc... These memes are plastered all over conservative forums and subreddits
Because it’s funny until it happens to you.
To be honest, we’re sharing a lot of these internally as a kind of gallows humor, so keep it coming. What’s weirder is people dancing on the grave of one of the last big tech WLB+good pay places that either could have been a future employee or a leveragable counter offer. Everyone acts smug, but if Twitter paid you 30% more than others you’d have been here too 🤷♂️
People are dumb. Crabs in a bucket. They dont realize how salaries are all tied together
And that's why Elon said Twitter needs to get healthy. To pay out so much just because you can is terrible business
You need to realize general public has a very negative views toward tech bros. Seen many people say we are overpaid and the reason they cannot afford house is because of tech people.
Like they do for teachers. We are crabs in a bucket while Musks class is boiling us up to crack us open and devour us
Pretty much this. I just left my non-tech job for a tech job so I may eventually have a chance at affording a home in my HCOL area.
go woke, you go broke 🤷🏻♂️ People at Twitter get what they deserve. And that ridiculous letter didn’t help them gain any sympathy.
Woke caused so much damage to the society in the last 10 years. Im glad it’s slowly collapsing
99% of us didn’t sign that letter which besides being cringy was an obvious phishing expedition (it required email, phone, etc). Our own security department said it looked sketchy.
First a lot of people are trolls. Second, Musk talks a lot. He hasn’t closed the deal so we’ll see what happens on Friday. Maybe he’ll ask for an extension or use some of his crazy antics to continue to try to get out of the deal.
Musk literally walked into Twitter with a kitchen sink. It's his now
Still not officially his. We’ll see. But he is also the kind of a-hole who will f over the company just because he got himself into a deal that he couldn’t get out of and made himself look more stupid. He doesn’t seem like the type to take personal responsibility.
It’s time for woke to go broke
If only we could be as great of a place for society as Raytheon-owned subsidiaries
This is such a tired trope. Hang it up rocket man
