Matt Calkins, CEO of software company Appian… said Musk’s approach to running his tech companies didn’t translate well in Washington.
It doesn’t even work well in his tech companies.
Unrelated tangent on the Appian software: It is exactly your solution if you have a five person job, but need to employ 30

Theater.
Elon Musk is playing the part of “heel”, and articles and reporting like this is engineered to “take you in” to the moment, where something can be simplified and reduced to a “good” versus “evil” paradigm. It creates an escape clause for those doing the truly villainous where the heel can be pointed to as “worse”.
100%. Also a hatchet man. He’s brought in, wrecks shit on purpose, gets “kicked out”, profits immensely. Now admin can roll things back 5-10% to placate the plebes and blame Musk who everyone already hates for their life being worse. That said, a lot of people would nonperformatively tell him to go fuck himself. Just don’t mistake it as anyone being on your side

I was going to say, this has been one of the clumsier high-school dinner theater productions I’ve been to.
Agree, and I’ve been to some pretty rough Rocky Horror Picture shows.

Please stop using TikTok language. It’s only there you are not allowed to say suicide, which, by itself, is fucking stupid, so please use the language as it’s meant to be written.

I asked in a friendly way, and explained why, and you attack me? Alright, no problem, I’ll just block your user. Damn, I love the Lemmy functionalities where I can remove/tag toxic people. Hope you have a lovely day!

This is the internet, you can say fuck. It was never meant for children under 13.
He hurt a lot of people and the debt is higher than ever.
Mission accomplished, for them
Lmao. He’s so fucking unlikeable. That is absolutely hilarious.
Fuck all of them, I say
I’m sure he’ll be consoled by his billions and having a corrupted government that coddles him even further.
Off with their heads!
I don’t know that we should be advocating for violence here. If we do that, we may find our opponents responding by doing the same, resulting in a positive feedback loop of escalation. I mean it’s not like they [checks notes] carefully planned and organized a rally based on an extremely inflammatory lie, riled up the attendees, told them to fight, sent them to the Capitol Building resulting in an angry mob that stormed the Capitol while actively calling for the deaths of the VP and several members of Congress, killing some people and vandalizing the offices of Congress…oh, no. Well, at least they weren’t pardoned for their flagrant, violent insurrection…oh, no. You know what? Just disregard my earlier comments. Carry on.
Green. Mario.
Love it. Marios that are green should be free.
