The Purge Continues: Hundreds Of Twitter Employees Resign Over Musk’s ‘Extremely Hardcore’ Ultimatum, Report Says | Eastern NC Now

    Hundreds of employees at Twitter have reportedly decided to resign from the company after CEO Elon Musk demanded that in order to stay at the company they would need to commit to "extremely hardcore" working conditions.

    The New York Times reported that the company was in disarray Thursday afternoon as the deadline approached as "hundreds of Twitter employees appeared to have decided to depart with three months of severance pay."

    The news comes after Musk let go of approximately half of the company's 7,500 full-time employees earlier this month in an attempt to cut out bloat because the company is not profitable.

    "Going forward, to build a breakthrough Twitter 2.0 and succeed in an increasingly competitive world, we will need to be extremely hardcore," Musk wrote in an email to employees this week. "This will mean working long hours at high intensity. Only exceptional performance will constitute a passing grade."

    "Twitter will also be much more engineering-driven," he continued. "Design and product management will still be very important and report to me, but those writing great code will constitute the majority of our team and have the greatest sway. At its heart, Twitter is a software and servers company, so I think this makes sense."

    The email instructed employees to click on a link if they wanted to be "part of the new Twitter." The email added that anyone who did not click the link by 5 p.m. EST would "receive three months of severance."

    Musk and his team held meetings with some of the "critical" people at the company that they were trying to persuade into staying. There were questions about whether Twitter would be able to continue operating with so many key personnel leaving the company.

    Twitter reportedly closed all office buildings temporarily until November 21st and suspended all badge access, the Platformer reported.

    "We're hearing this is because Elon Musk and his team are terrified employees are going to sabotage the company," the publication said. "Also, they're still trying to figure out which Twitter workers they need to cut access for."

Where do you stand on the wanton censorship by Big Tech Platforms, while retaining their Section 230 carveout indemnifying them for Slander /Defamation lawsuits and Copyright infringements?

  Big Tech Platforms have the right to Censor all speech providing they voluntarily relinquish their Section 230 Carveout.

  Big Tech Platforms DO NOT have the right to Censor any speech, while retaining multiple indemnifications by virtue of the Section 230 Carveout.

  I know nothing of this 230 talk, but "I do love me some social media".

It has been far too many years since the Woke theology interlaced its canons within the fabric of the Indoctrination Realm, so it is nigh time to ask: Does this Representative Republic continue, as a functioning society of a self-governed people, by contending with the unusual, self absorbed dictates of the Woke, and their vast array of Victimhood scenarios?

  Yes, the Religion of Woke must continue; there are so many groups of underprivileged, underserved, a direct result of unrelenting Inequity; they deserve everything.

  No; the Woke fools must be toppled from their self-anointed pedestal; a functioning society of a good Constitutional people cannot withstand this level of "existential" favoritism as it exists now.

  I just observe; with this thoughtful observation: What will happen "when the Vikings are breeching our walls;" how do the Woke react?

Considering how abjectly corrupt and civilly abusive the Left has become regarding the corrosive effect of their elected leaders; their entrenched and ruling bureaucracy; employing their failed Education Industry as Indoctrinators; their collusive private sector operators, such as the terminally discredited Legacy Media and Big Tech censorship of Free Speech: What will be the best course forward for hardworking Middle Americans, including the Patriot Class?

  Withdraw from society, go underground and plan for a resurgence when it is feasible to do so.

  Work within the confines of better policy by the People's government, once good sense and sanity is restored in the electorate at large, to achieve such.

  Are you a crazy, nut-job Insurrectionist? Everything is perfect within our plan to achieve our intended goals for the Socialist Left.

  Secession to form a true Constitutional Republic.
