I am personally thrilled to see a company stand up to cancel culture and political employee activism. The ridiculous non-work related distractions from employee on various political crusades we've been seeing at many companies like Google are one of the things ruining Silicon Valley. It's nice to see Elon not allowing it at his companies, and Coinbase in being another standout against this silliness.
- sergiomattei 4y agoHow is this cancel culture?
- tim333 4y ago“SpaceX must swiftly and explicitly separate itself from Elon’s personal brand,” sounds a bit like cancel Elon.
- strathmeyer 4y agoUsually canceling means getting someone fired, guess it's all projection from these people.
- tim333 4y agoSounds like they'd like him fired. Having seen the full text of the letter it has a bit "But for all our technical achievements, SpaceX fails to apply these principles to the promotion of diversity, equity, and inclusion with equal priority across the company, resulting in a workplace culture that remains firmly rooted in the status quo." Which sounds quite cancel culture.

- scollet 4y ago> cancel culture and political employee activism Yeah let's normalize racism! Yeah cool!
