Nobody said that. These are not workers in poverty, they are making a significant amount of money and know the risks. There will be severance packages and they'll be hired elsewhere. This has happened to dozens of well known tech companies in the last few months. We're only focusing on musk because politics.

Literally the comment I responded to said that:

> Honestly I don't really care about Twitter employees. The company is not going exceptionally technically amazing...No idea how they were able to stay alive so long while turning loss after loss.

Anyways, this has nothing to do with Musk. I just think anybody losing their only source of income deserves basic empathy first, and I will happily call out comments that spin it as if they somehow deserved it bc they worked at twitter or weren't renowned for their engineering prowess.
