The SpaceX President claims that the fired employees repeatedly spammed a large number of employees during paid time[1].

I appreciate their spirit, because I think Elon is being juvenile and distracting, but this seems cut-and-dry.

- andrepd 4y agoWhy are you taking their claims at face value?
- zozbot234 4y agoIt's not about "taking their claims at face value", it's highlighting those claims because that's the one thing that might actually make this firing stick. If the claims are accurate, the employees can't claim that the letter was "protected activity" relating to workplace conditions.
- runjake 4y agoBecause, in the absence of other evidence, it's the best take I have. Also, if the SpaceX president's statement is false, then the fired people probably have a lawsuit to file. Would the SpaceX president be that dumb? Maybe.
