I hope this move bleeds talent and destroys both companies. I mean, I get that X already probably lost everyone who could get a different job (making people on visas hostages) but this should empty out the last of those who have the ability to leave and haven’t done so already.
Can’t roll my eyes any harder or they would pop out of my head.
k bye
Not for Elon. It’s weird what half a billion dollars can do.
You mean he doesn’t sleep on people’s couches anymore like he says? He actually lives the life of a billionaire with too much privilege?
Please host the Twitter servers in Texas. It would be nice for the internet to improve each day the poorly managed Texas power grid dies.
Please host the Twitter servers in Texas
Can’t do that with porn being so heavily restricted in Texas…
I really doubt that that’s the actual reason. It’s just convenient to blame trans people.
Is he paying to move the staff along with? Because Austin is almost as expensive as SF.
I ALSO would move MY Business if I wasn’t allowed to Talk About Children’s Genitals! Also DRAG QUEENS are Perverts (but I NEED to be able to Discuss 5 year olds Genitals!)!
K. Your ignorance on the subject is showing. Please educate yourself and then come back to the discussion.
Have you considered the comment not being serious but highlighting the absurdity of antitrans folks being so incredibly focused on young peoples genitals while decrying others as perverted for wearing clothes that differ from their own?
Bro apparently needs a /s lmao. Guys are yall stupid?
Wonder how many of the engineers will follow him. Idk if this is true but felt like Twitter was one of the top places / most desirable places to work, you got to solve high scale, highly visible problems to help people communicate along with the standard silicon valley amenities. Now with the musk take over I doubt they’re having luck finding the best talent. Will be fun to see it decay over the coming years.
If you’re in the country on an H1B you’re property of Elon.
ITAR restricts a lot of jobs to American nationals.
Can someone explain this to me. What does student policy have to do with space or online posts?
Absolutely nothing.
Like most extremely outspoken people with a phobia like this. He’s probably a closet wannabe trans.
Actually, the more I think about it, it kinda fits for him/her …
You know… that does kind of track. Back in the 2010’s when the hot topic was gay rights, some of the most zealot anti-gay right wingers… were found to dabble in the very least. And this is some loud stuff that has no direct connection to him, so… yeah.
Even if he is closeted, you should still respect his pronouns. It’s still bigotry when you do it, just like when any transphobe does it.
I agree that we should use people’s preferred pronouns. I know it’s difficult to use neopronouns but it’s so seldom an issue let’s just get on with life.
Elon has protested being identified as a cisgender male, and declared that ‘prosecute/Fauci’ should be used.
Prosecute has also mentioned that prosecute doesn’t really like people making a big deal about pronouns so let’s just move on.
Let’s move on so you dont have to examine your behavior here or how it may harm the community you are supposedly standing up for
Honestly I’d be happy to examine my behavior, because my support for the trans community is real. I don’t think I’m on trial but if you want me to provide evidence I can.
I don’t agree with the strategy of the previous poster which was to intentionally mislabel Elon. But I think it is appropriate to ironically adopt someone’s insincerely adopted pronouns. That said, I’d be happy to read an explanation of why this is a bad strategy.
Cheers.
In general, I don’t think it’s “not transphobic” to use transphobic rhetoric. So that includes using fake pronouns including neopronouns and/or misgendering people.
I believe that if the people that maliciously adopt fake pronouns had to deal with people actually using the fake pronouns they would clarify and retract their transphobic fake pronouns.
It doesn’t, Texas is probably better for taxes. He’s just being a bigot to “own the libs” or whatever the real reason is.
Imagine if federal agencies weren’t allowed to work with businesses that have that kind of political stance… One can dream…
Imagine if there weren’t people wealthy enough to have their own private space programs…and yes, it would be better if oligarchs didn’t have the flex to attempt to bend state or national policy to their will.
At this point, NASA is kind of fucked if they don’t have SpaceX to rely on.
I hate it.
He should move back to South Africa, but I assume he doesn’t like it that much anymore since they officially abolished apartheid
He’d probably do okay. It’s still one of, if not the most unequal countries on the planet and it’s far more corrupt than the U.S.

He would have to stick to the cities that can eeliably keep electricity available.
You mean unlike in Texas?
Can’t imagine what I’d demand to be made to work in texas.
But still he’d have to pretend to pay his slaves a living wage and that is just a huge dampener for economic development!
Good. Tech workers are a scourge on cities.
- a tech worker
He is such a creep about trans people
one of his estranged kids is trans so it’s personally motivated bigotry for him
I know, also Grimes dating Chelsea Manning right after they broke up (I feel bad Chelsea Manning got involved in anyone this, she is too good for these people)
He’s just so creepy and weird about it though.
Is he going to see his kid’s genitals? No, right? So why does it matter? Why do the genitals of students matter to him?
While donating a shit ton of money monthly to a pedophile rapist.
Fuck off shit bag, we’re full
