whatever... this guy is a moron in my book. love how he quits a job that my people would kill for especially in these "uncertain times" and without having a new one first. i hope he finds one, but i wouldn't doubt him having a hard time right now given the current climate of covid and political upheaval. personally i think he should have found a job that suited his political beliefs while continuing to work at facebook. if there is one thing that life has taught me is that you never quit your current job until you have a new one or a new plan. "reaching out to your network" is not a plan, it's desperation.

How do you know he doesn't have a new job or plan? That's a.. rather large assumption.

  From OP's post: > I’m open to any interesting, high-impact work. Even if you don’t have contacts in the education/social good space, I’d be grateful for your support in connecting me with companies looking to hire someone like me.

Or maybe he knows he won't have much trouble finding one.

maybe you're the moron in not realizing that people can have values other than yours. maybe some prioritize their values to their financial security. maybe this guy is already financially independent. there's more to life than working a prestigious job -- if you don't have values and the spine to live your life true to them, what's the point?

  He almost certainly is financially independent. He likely made a ton of money contributing to the problem we have today... And it sounds like he's going invest that money into a censorship-oriented social media startup. This guy's experience at Facebook has taught him that free speech is the problem. His next startup sounds like Facebook's next multi-billion dollar acquisition.

For some people principals are greater than money. I am thankful for these people. I’m sure OP will fair fine in the job market.

Lol - I just found out from a source at FB that this guy quit on May 21 and just using this situation as an excuse to get noticed. What a piece of shit.
