Elon Musk fired dozens more Twitter staff the night before Thanksgiving — days after saying he was done with layoffs​

The employees fired overnight on Wednesday were informed they were being laid off for performance reasons, and were given one month of severance, one of the people said.

The termination process was similar to that experienced by previously laid-off employees, the two people said: Access to work tools and computers were cut off, and a notice of termination was sent to affected employees' personal email accounts.

Thousands of Twitter employees have already been laid off, resigned, or fired by Musk, leaving critical workers stretched thin. Twitter teams are already so short-handed that many employees have had to work on Thanksgiving, the people said.

Irony meter has broken on this one.......

I’ve had a lot of people ask me recently why not stay on Twitter and fight. The reason is because Musk controls the algorithm. He could ban you tomorrow, and he could also just deprioritize every one of your tweets so no one sees them. You can’t fight and win when the opponent has complete...

Okay, I just had to go over to Mastodon to see what's up. These flakes are better off not being seen by real folks. If they're really that clueless, good riddance.

Didn't one of our Multi Gendered forum retards make the failed prediction that Musk wouldn't actually make the Twitter deal?
Did they ever come back on here & admit that were wrong?...About this & everything else they have ever stated on here?

Or do they just realize it goes without saying?...

From what I have read, trolls [ probably progressives ] have been dropping the N-Word left, right and center .... with no context other than to say N-Word, in a vain attempt to high light how twitter has ' FALLEN ' with no moderation .... since Musk took over - therefore Musk is racist / racist adjacent

' see Twitter is over run with all these racists '

Not white supremists being racist, but progressives trying to drive a fake narrative

Which is why using Internet reaction as a metric for the general public is so rife with error, it astounds me that anyone tries to take it seriously.

Ever been on a conservative site, and they ask a question that ANY conservative is highly likely to answer only one way - and you look at the results, and - wow - it's like 90%+ one way? Of course it is - because it's not a sample of the general public. It's a measure how readers of that site feel and nothing more.

It's very hard to get a read on these kinds of things. Even regular opinion polling is MUCH harder than just plain old statistical sampling, because while numbers generally don't LIE, people almost always do. When we sample something like how many employees a company has or what benefits they have - those numbers don't change. But a person's OPINION can change overnight.

The idea that a SUDDEN SPIKE in use of the N-word - on a site like "Twitter", not widely known to be the home turf of conservatives - is absurd. It didn't take long for someone to notice that the activity was being gamed.

I wasn't sure he would. I thought he was probably toying with them, to drive down their stock and embarrass them.

Genius or not, he's been very adept at seeing what the future will hold. I have little doubt that should the technology catch up, electric cars WILL be a thing, eventually. In the 80's, a select few had "car phones". By the mid 90's, people began to buy mobile phones and by the 00's, smart phones were the rage. NOW, they're so ubiquitous, a lot of things are taken for granted that if you HAVE a phone, it's a smart cell phone. That's a transition of 30 years, and the path to their popularity was the usual one for technology - the "killer app" idea - the single or several apps that make purchase absolutely necessary.

So while he may not SEEM brilliant - his business acumen, I generally trust to be keen.

Now you did it, Sam. His head is going to swell up and burst all over the place.

Sam, that is what progressives think, Twitter is over run with Neo Nazi's and the KKK now that Musk has taken over and fired the moderation team

Elon Musk knows what he's doing at Twitter, and it's making activist journalists panic​

The progressive playground for years is no more, with Musk embracing this totally-foreign concept of free speech and not subscribing to the totalitarian tactics of the old Twitter, which resulted in censorship and suppression and the banning of accounts that is the norm in places like China and North Korea.

The most egregious example of this by a country mile, of course, was the Hunter Biden laptop bombshell via the New York Post that hit just weeks before the 2020 election. You know what happened from there: Twitter locked out any account that shared the story, including those of the Trump campaign. Huntergate was also immediately dubbed Russian disinformation, thanks to "reporters" who toed the line for the Biden campaign.

Joe Biden himself called the report "garbage" and a "Russian plant." Fifty-one former intelligence officers also penned a letter pushing the Russia angle, all without one actually having access to the evidence. And almost everyone in the political media bought it hook, line and sinker.

How bad do they hate Musk?

He responds to a tweet about Madagascars species being unique due to it being isolated for 88 million years, and the crowd says he's dog whistling for Heil Hitler...... At least a few of thier own showed some common sense

Yesterday, Rebel news reported that Portland Antifa extremists, angry that Twitter banned their violent rhetoric, publicly vowed to sabotage Tesla manufacturing plants to teach Elon Musk a lesson.

It started early yesterday when Musk criticized Twitter’s former management for allowing violent leftwing rhetoric to continue on the platform, in spite of banning countless conservative voices for much less serious offenses:

After a bunch of users responded to the thread with more examples of Antifa’s posts calling for violence, including coordinating riots, posting instructions on how to build weapons, specifically targeting named individuals, and calling for violence against — of all people — Libs of TikTok, Twitter started banning the most egregious leftwing accounts.

Antifa didn’t like it.

Courageous independent journalist Andy Ngo reported late yesterday that Antifa was calling for attacks on Tesla.

I’ll bet you a steak dinner that the FBI will not be raiding any Antifa apartments, or even investigating this REAL domestic terrorism, in any way, despite claiming to be “focusing” on the threat of “domestic terrorism” for almost two years now.
