>Tesla's Fremont factory is a racially segregated workplace where Black workers are subjected to racial slurs....

This article doesn't say it, but the last time this came up, in small print, it was admitted that all reported instances of racial slurs were delivered by black people to other black people in a friendly manner.

I don't suppose you know how to search your own comments do you? I could find it for you if you really wanted because I commented on it the last time it was on the front page (quite a long time ago). I would need instructions on how to search though, no way I could scroll that far back.

Here is the article

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/10/05/tesla-must-pay-137-million-t...

relevant line.

“In addition to Mr. Diaz, three other witnesses (all non-Tesla contract employees) testified at trial that they regularly heard racial slurs (including the n-word) on the Fremont factory floor. While they all agreed that the use of the n-word was not appropriate in the workplace, they also agreed that most of the time they thought the language was used in a ‘friendly’ manner and usually by African-American colleagues.”

Seems like a silly claim. Black people aren't the ones obsessed with swastikas, promoting the KKK, and pushing other racist nonsense.

Also, any rational observer isn't foolish enough to believe friendly communication or even conflict between black people is racial.

Still waiting for proof.

1 day later still crickets on this claim, is Elon's PR team in here deflecting with nonsense?
