Between Elongate harassment, the steady stream of safe workplace violation claims in past years, and Elon now building a crack team of aggressive street fighter lawyers, it seems rather than correct the behaviors all accused entities are doubling down. What does it signal?

That the media doesn't like being teased by Musk, and the establishment is doing it's best to push out people who don't play along?

#13I agree with this judge. People should be able to sue their employers if they get sexually harassed by their supervisors or coworkers. Mandatory arbitration is a bad idea.

I find it impossible to believe people actually think like this and aren't just aggressively defending something terrible because they are invested in the person's companies.

An alternate take on this might be that Musk had an idea these things were coming and so made the comments about how he'd be getting canceled to get ahead of things PR-wise.

I'd go a step further and say that binding arbitration clauses between employers and their employees probably shouldn't be allowed in general. Employer/employee disputes will frequently touch upon labor law, and should be heard by a court familiar with the relevant statutes -- not by a private-sector arbitrator.

Well he did promise that they would only fight for good and never for evil. And if I know Musk, he would never make a promise he wouldn't deliver on for 8 years and running. (dripping sarcasm)
