The letter was about how rooms Elon's tweets impacted working conditions.

Eg Individuals and groups of employees at SpaceX have spent significant effort beyond their technical scope to make the company a more inclusive space via conference recruiting, open forums, feedback to leadership, outreach, and more.

To say this is a stretch is an understatement. Working conditions are hours, the physical space, WFH v. hybrid v. remote, async or not, etc.

The letter specifically called out, eg, unequal enforcement of workplace policies.

There is so much nonsense in this thread. The letter has nothing to do with working conditions.

I take that back:

The letter was spammed to all employees using company resources, which means its authors and supporters were creating a hostile work environment. Firing the dead-weight woke cry bullies was the proper move.
