Twitter employees have penned an open letter to soon-to-be boss Elon Musk and the Board of Directors begging to keep their jobs, after the Washington Post reported that Musk is planning to get rid of nearly 75% of the company’s 7,500 workers – whittling Twitter down to a ‘skeleton’ staff of just over 2,000.

“Elon Musk’s plan to lay off 75% of Twitter workers will hurt Twitter’s ability to serve the public conversation,” reads a draft of the letter, which has not yet been published. “A threat of this magnitude is reckless, undermines our users’ and customers’ trust in our platform, and is a transparent act of worker intimidation.”

In short, Twitter employees are freaking out, and left-wing ‘experts’ fear that free speech will allow ‘dangerous’ information to reach millions.

This is what it looks like when ideological zealots lose control over narratives.

Twitter doesn't serve the public conversation; it actively attempts to skew that conversation for ulterior political/ideological purposes.

It's my understanding these employees are "at will." They have no standing to make demands of the new owner of their place of employment. It will be delicious if Musk actually does fire 75% of them.
