> I literally find it impossible to believe this According to the article, there were hundreds of complaints from workers. But based on reputation you are willing to disbelieve them all and conclude that the state shouldn't follow up?

There is a difference between people complaining about other worker making comments and implementing racial segregation. Its hard to believe that a car plant in California was more racist then all those in the South.

Tesla respond quite well in their blog: >Over the past five years, the DFEH has been asked on almost 50 occasions by individuals who believe they were discriminated against or harassed to investigate Tesla. On every single occasion, when the DFEH closed an investigation, it did not find misconduct against Tesla. It therefore strains credibility for the agency to now allege, after a three-year investigation, that systematic racial discrimination and harassment somehow existed at Tesla. and similar.

  It also aligns perfectly with my suggestion that this is a timed attack. And it’s also an attack on the issue where it’s most obvious to attack. Calling someone or a company racist is extremely hard to disprove and is the calling card the media and the establishment to pile on.
