Dictators are bad. Unless they’re corporate dictators. In which case, they’re our billionaire heroes who will save us all.

Go capitalism!

“It’s not the first time Musk’s tough-love treatment of employees has come up.”

I could write a freaking thesis deconstructing all the things wrong with this sentence and the culture that allows this to uttered, not to mention published, but the TLDR would be: # # #

Aral Balkan reshared this.

Unlike real dictators, Elon can't (nor wants to) jail anyone who disagrees. These people are in-high-demand skilled workers who would find a new job in a matter of a few weeks, probably a better one. They are free to make their own choices. If employees revolt, he'll have no one to blame for tanking the company.
I was born in a country where you had to work where the state assigned you to work. That could be in a different time zone. That's a real dictatorship.

It is not about him, or any other CEO. You don’t like his new policy, you can leave, there are many other offers. Create a new company and put him out of business, or be your own boss. That’s free market.
