[Sactowndog]

Elon is a total POS person using his on-line persona to harass and attack individual government employees.

That's fine. But we can proceed without doxxing people. 

As a government worker, I can greatly emphasize with those who Musk blasts on his (shrinking) bully pulpit. 

Musk, Vamasmammy watavever, can blast grift (SpaceX=NASA) and largesse however they choose to define it. They are and can only be merely advisory. 

But fuxk them the right off if they EVER call out individuals in any capacity. 

This isn't the private sector and government employees can be targeted, individually, in ways that private sector employees cannot. 

And I would strongly advise not to target certain job classes as specialized ones can be targeted to individuals. I would guess a Director of Climate Diversity (or other such classification) could be targeted to a specific individual. 

They seem to want to target individual people in government. This is both disturbing and dangerous. And honestly fuck anyone who cheers on those methods.

He should not have named names.  Pig move.  But it's not doxxing.  The positions he called out are absolutely beirocratic waste...fucking retarded and gum up the works.

Replicans for two generations now have railed about government spending, and democrats laugh when they don't do it.

They are putting their money where their mouth is now, for better or worse.  And Musk is uniquely qualified to cut the crust

Uniquely?

Unique -> being the only one of its kind; unlike anything else.

He may be unique. 

I'll give you that but he's not the only person qualified to 'cut the crust', not even close (if that's what your after).

I know you love the guy but seriously.

[Cowboy Up]

I’m actually ok with him cutting the fat off government spending.  How’s he’s going about it is retarded but if they actually cut spending I’m good with it.

[CV147]

O NO not muh bura-crasa!

Happy Thanksgiving my mentally ill friends.  May your TDS feed your rage today and always….

Remember when everyone cried and cried and predicted doom when Musk fired a shit ton of people from Twitter?  Works just fine... 

We don't need any of these useless positions.  Government will run smoother without fucking jobs like  "director of climate diversity" mucking up bills.

Nobody does efficiency like Elon.  Loving this.

It's literally not doxxing.  it's being transparent, which is refreshing in politics. He could have listed the positions being cut and anybody could then just google the names.  The horror. 

Imagine being upset that ususeless bureaucratic positions are being cut.

And him wanting to halt the insanely stupid two trillion dollar F35 program in favor of cheaper, deadlier unmaned craft is again proving he is being utilized properly.

Now go cry more lolololol

The F35 never made sense. They studied this concept in the late 60s and early 70s and even back then they knew making 1 aircraft to serve the navy, airforce and marines would not yield cost savings and would end up with a sub par aircraft that didn't meet anyone's needs.

There is a huge amount of waste and useless positions and terrible processes in the Federal government. You will get no arguments from me on that. 

But confine your "transparancy" to calling out wasteful processes and general programs until you actually do something. Then you can report on positions removed, what have you.

Calling out the positions via X before you actually do anything is firing up his lunatic fans to doxx and harass these people. He knows it will result in that. He knows it is easier to get these employees to simply quit their jobs and has stated as such.

He's a shit human being.

Ok the F-35 being a $2 trillion program is misleading. We haven’t spent $2 trillion on it.  The $2 trillion is the projected program cost over the entire lifecycle of the airframe, which is decades.  And drones are going to become a huge part of war fighting but we will still need manned arial platforms.  And no, we shouldn’t turn it over to AI,  ever.

And Elon is a piece of shit for doxxing people.  Say you’re going to eliminate the position, no problem. But putting their names out there is irresponsible.  Those people don’t deserve the threats they’re getting.

He didn't dox them, he reposted a Tweet by the datahazard account, which appears to bill itself as some sort of government watchdog account. Musk retweeting it will put significantly more eyes on it, but 1) he did not "dox" anyone and 2) Under open government laws specified in 5 U.S.C. § 552, the names, titles, and salaries of all civilian government employees are considered public information, so the original post is not doxxing either. Had a personal address, phone number or email been included, then that would be a different story. Does it suck...yes, but that comes with the territory when you're a government employee...especially higher up the food chain.
