- Apocryphon 4y agoAlso a lot of people too easily fall for clickbait framing and they missed the point of the article, which is that layoffs have a lot of detrimental effects on people, don't always help the company, and can be sort of a cargo cult response to economic downturns. Instead they focused on the professor ignoring the actual economic causes, which is a fair critique but not the article's main thesis.
