I hope this move bleeds talent and destroys both companies. I mean, I get that X already probably lost everyone who could get a different job (making people on visas hostages) but this should empty out the last of those who have the ability to leave and haven’t done so already.
Living in Hawthorne myself (the place SpaceX is in now) I don’t get the sense it’s doing the city all that good. I think they get major tax breaks or something, since the area is pretty run down except for it’s immediate area. It’s fairly industrial / commercial but there’s a closed down mall, boarded up shops, etc.
I hope this is a punch in the gut the fools running the city need to start dealing with it’s real problems. :/
I know, also Grimes dating Chelsea Manning right after they broke up (I feel bad Chelsea Manning got involved in anyone this, she is too good for these people)
He’s just so creepy and weird about it though.
Is he going to see his kid’s genitals? No, right? So why does it matter? Why do the genitals of students matter to him?
You know… that does kind of track. Back in the 2010’s when the hot topic was gay rights, some of the most zealot anti-gay right wingers… were found to dabble in the very least. And this is some loud stuff that has no direct connection to him, so… yeah.
I agree that we should use people’s preferred pronouns. I know it’s difficult to use neopronouns but it’s so seldom an issue let’s just get on with life.
Elon has protested being identified as a cisgender male, and declared that ‘prosecute/Fauci’ should be used.
Prosecute has also mentioned that prosecute doesn’t really like people making a big deal about pronouns so let’s just move on.
Honestly I’d be happy to examine my behavior, because my support for the trans community is real. I don’t think I’m on trial but if you want me to provide evidence I can.
I don’t agree with the strategy of the previous poster which was to intentionally mislabel Elon. But I think it is appropriate to ironically adopt someone’s insincerely adopted pronouns. That said, I’d be happy to read an explanation of why this is a bad strategy.
In general, I don’t think it’s “not transphobic” to use transphobic rhetoric. So that includes using fake pronouns including neopronouns and/or misgendering people.
I believe that if the people that maliciously adopt fake pronouns had to deal with people actually using the fake pronouns they would clarify and retract their transphobic fake pronouns.
I don’t believe that. I believe that simply contributes to the transphobia they are perpetuating. Have you ever spoken to someone like that and used this technique irl? It doesn’t work, and they are happy they got you to join in agreement that pronouns are “nonsense” from their PoV
