The Left Melts Down Over Musk’s Twitter Layoffs

November 4th, 2022 11:09 AM

Cue the Great Twitter Freakout Phase Two. 

Geraldo Rivera reported on Twitter that “Elon Musk has declared All-Out war on his former staff. At 9am Pacific time, Massive Layoffs go into affect at Twitter. With no formal notice and gut-wrenching efficiency, Musk and his inner circle have eliminated about half of its pre-Elon workforce. 3,700 Twitter jobs gone.”

Liberals think they are so clever in responding that billionaires are supposed to create jobs, not get rid of them. A top tweet by GQPHypocricy is “I was told Billionaires need our Tax Money because they're job creators.” 

So ignorant. The left thinks CEOs should not lay off employees even if they are inefficient or otherwise unqualified. 

One Twitter employee (in a now-deleted tweet) even posted a picture of herself crying about the layoffs with the caption: “It’s insane because I knew it was coming but I’m absolutely ripped in half. I’m embarrassed for posting, but it hurts because this company was so damn special. #lovewhereyouworked.”

Well, if this employee exemplifies Twitter’s culture to any extent then these layoffs are extremely essential. Unstable, overly emotional people should not have control over such a high proportion of speech in our country. 

And the left needs to understand that billionaires like Musk do not become so successful for no reason. There is a method to his madness, and it likely makes sense to lay off all these employees. Only time will tell.
