    I was suprised to see a headline of 6k people fired over 4 years being called significant and then realised the only reason this article exists is because it’s Twitter staff being fired and this journalist is obsessed with Twitter and thinks every person there is a special soul who should be indefinitely employed.

    Elon specifically said he was going to reduce the size of Twitter. Firing 6k people is not a surprise nor is it negative news. The “job creator” in quotes probably refers to the 200k+ people employed across his 5 companies.

    The focus should be on firing employees for trying to unionized because that’s the only egregious part.
