Why would companies be democratic? That would be an extreme historical rarity
Unions are democratic, employee-run institutions which promote higher involvement of employees in the operations and logistical planning of companies. I'm not referring to Twitter becoming a Co-op, that would indeed be nearly unprecedented.
Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, recently described himself as a "free speech absolutist."
The most disgusting fact I learned in this article is that Shotwell personally backed Musk on denying claims he sexually harassed the flight attended. What? Anyone who knows these people and their friends knows that the situation as described in the media was not out of the realm of possibility. Unless Shotwell, COO of SpaceX, was on that plane and witnessed exactly what happened, she is not qualified to assist in bu…
Or maybe, just maybe, she knows more about the case than armchair experts like yourself? She would have been involved the investigation/settlement review so would know the full details.
Musk may end up being the most influential person to: 1. Electrify our vehicular infrastructure 2. Get humans to the Moon, if not to Mars 3. Accelerate the unionization of Silicon Valley tech workers His approach to remote-vs-in-office work is less that of a data-informed futurist and more that of an autocrat. Just as he's loudly supporting public free speech as long as it's his speech, I predict within a few months…
Musk has done great things but these days I think he’s at his lowest point.
/I’ve said this about three times now in threads like these.
This company survives on public funding via NASA. This may be the biggest gift they could have given to their competitors. No one will care if their competitors have similar issues, SpaceX was sold as different and the illusion of that is fading.

But I get a feeling there is something a bit off with his behavior and/or mental health, and that it’s been getting worse lately. I…

Are the people working at SpaceX and Tesla "Silicon Valley tech workers"? I think most of them aren't. > he'll be loudly proclaiming his support of democracy Unlikely, given his dependence on China - he'll stay quiet, just like Tim Cook does at Apple.

yes, that's exactly what's happening, and precisely the reason why unionization happens. very perceptive of you.
