To all you radical libs on here I think I remember you parroting Facebook is a private company they can do what they want refering to the upset of conservatives getting booted off. Well.. Space x is a private company musk can do what he wants.

Fair. They should have aired their grievances internally. Also, should not have pressured other employees to join in. Criticize your boss publically and get fired.Insubordination.

"The open letter from SpaceX employees criticizing Musk asserted that some of his tweets sent out to his 98 million followers cast the company in a poor light.

“As our CEO and most prominent spokesperson, Elon is seen as the face of SpaceX — every tweet that Elon sends is a de facto public statement by the company," the open letter said. “It is critical to make clear to our teams and to our potential talent pool that his messaging does not reflect our work, our mission, or our values."

It's his company, he doesn't have to cater to "how his employees" are seen or "their values". That's like me working a stripper pole then whining about the message seen on billboards, when they show a girl upside down on a pole. We don't want to be seen like that-go work somewhere else!

Did these employees think they had some kind of special protection against dissing their boss?? Obviously they found out the hard way that they did not!

Bbbbuuuutttt, they are special. They have been led to believe, throughout their educational years, that they have rights. They have been led to believe, by the news media, that protesting and critiquing is their responsibility.
