Elon Musk is firing those who criticize him...
Elon Musk has fired at least 20 employees from twitter who criticized his actions on twitter or on the internal messaging platform Slack. Apart from this, some people were also fired because they had retweeted the post of criticism. Musk, who has fired about 3,800 full-time employees and more than 5,000 contract workers, is getting rid of anyone who dares to criticize him.
The platform's Casey Newton put the number of people fired at 20 who are software engineers, and tech writer Gergely Orosz tweeted that about 10 people had been fired for speaking out against Musk internally. Orosz tweeted, "For those who say criticism should be taken in private, I have reports over the past 24 hours of multiple employees criticizing Musk's tweets on an internal Slack watercooler channel. Ten men, as I hear."
Newton posted, "Employees say it appears about 20 people have been fired for criticism so far." Musk has confirmed that he fired Eric Fraunhofer, a twitter employee who publicly misquoted him on the micro-blogging platform. A twitter user suggested that Musk probably didn't want Fraunhofer on his team after the developer tweeted that maybe Musk should ask the question privately, to which the twitter CEO replied that he has been fired.
Those who merely retweeted Musk's criticism have also been shown the way out. One twitter user posted, "Elon has fired several employees who criticised him on twitter and the company's Slack, per protocol."
