Are you just being weirdly pedantic? Everybody knows that Twitter isn't employing slave labor.

- WalterBright 3y agoI'll go with: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced_labour https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced_labour I'm not being weird about it. Just calling out the idea that Musk is forcing people to work for him is hyperbolic. If you want to call Musk mean, arrogant, uncaring, bad, etc., that's all fine.
- howinteresting 3y agoLike almost everything in the world, forced labor (not the official definition, but the actual reality) is a spectrum, not a binary.
- WalterBright 3y agoWikipedia's definition is not official anything. It's a commonly accepted (and rather expansive) definition of the phrase. I did not invent my own personal definition of it. I'll stick with that.
- manderley 3y agoSeems you've decided that instead of adding value to the discussion by saying anything of interest, you're just quibbling about word definitions. Pretty lazy?
