At this point if you're still working there knowingly building a powerful fascist gathering platform after so much time available to leave, taking dirty Nazi money as payment for your services...
I dunno man... should I feel bad for the staff, or are the remaining staff complicit enough at this point?
Feel bad for the poor bastards stuck there on visas. Feel less bad about anyone looking around that can't quit but can't find another job. Would you hire someone who's still working at Twitter? I probably wouldn't even pull that resume for an interview.
That's a point I had not considered. Twitter is resume poison, at this point.
Do they have employees on H1B? If so, that may be why they haven't jumped ship for less-Nazified pastures. Not excusing anyone, just striving to understand.
Or maybe take a paycheck and do substandard job introduce bugs etc.
Heck, I'll even do that for a company I like!
Let's not blame fellow workers for doing what they need to survive. Big tech companies are exploitive by nature, espcially H1B visas are basically indebted servitude at this point.
This is about class, not left vs right.
