According to sources familiar with the matter, Bobby Berretta-Paris, a five-year Tesla veteran, was let go last week. He was hired as a recruiter and promoted three times during his tenure. He was also the volunteer president of LGBTQ+ at Tesla.
.
Sources also told Electrek about a software engineer that was also let go by Tesla last week. They had been working at Tesla for four years – most recently as senior software engineer in charge of naming conventions in Tesla’s vehicle UI team – and had been promoted three times. The software engineer volunteered as a diversity and inclusion leader and was involved in employee protection when it came to issues of diversity and inclusion. (Update: we removed their name.)
.
Now we learn that many employees involved in diversity and inclusivity programs were part of the layoffs
.
Elon Musk: Unless it is stopped, the woke mind virus will destroy civilization and humanity will never reached Mars
.
note:
To be clear, these are not people whose job was diversity and inclusion. These were people who volunteered time to helping generate diversity and inclusion at Tesla. People who were primarily of lgbtq+ background.


required personal commentary:
Elon also recently said:
that they need to cut 10% of the workforce and pause hiring due to having a “super-bad feeling” about the economy.
It turns out I have a super bad feeling about Tesla's prospects while Elon is CEO.

Considering the number of employees at Tesla, two members of the diversity and inclusion programs being laid off seems a low number to make any conclusions.

After having Musk as CEO for 14-years, I think Tesla really needs some change starting at the top.

It is more then just two members.

It was the president ( a recruiter), the replacement president ( a software engineer ), and a whole bunch of other people who happened to be involved in the programs.


Once could be coincidence.
Twice is enemy action.

Who are these who bunch of other people who happened to be involved in the programs? I am not reading more than two people in the article you linked with ties to the diversity and inclusion programs. However I could have just missed this confirmation in the body of the article.

Tesla has laid off both the president of its LGBTQ+ community and a lead involved in diversity and inclusivity programs at the company.

paragraph six:
Now we learn that many employees involved in diversity and inclusivity programs were part of the layoffs – including the president of Tesla’s LGBTQ+ community – and a lead involved in diversity and inclusivity programs at the company.

What is the number for "many"? Is it two or is it more? We really don't know from reading this article.

Here is another article rehashing the same information:
https://crast.net/88668/tesla-quits...ity-amid-concerns-over-musks-voke-mind-virus/
We now learn that many employees involved in diversity and inclusion programs were part of the layoffs, including the president of Tesla’s LGBTQ+ community and a chief involved in diversity and inclusion programs at the company.

Nobody is putting any numbers on the word "many" yet.

Will need to wait for more information.

Also I read today, one of Elon's many children, in this case from his wife of 10 years. He was a twin, and on his 18th birthday he filed a request with the courts to change his name and last name so he's not affiliated with musk anymore, and also to change their gender to a woman.


Wilson cited gender identity as a reason for the name change and “the fact that I no longer live with or wish to be related to my biological father in any way, shape or form.”

Considering what a prick Elon has turned out to be and how thin skinned and vindictive he is he is, sounds right up his alley.

and the other above posts^^

...Anyone else getting these kind of vibes from Musk these days? Lol, just watch that flick again if it's been a while...

Well, if you put 10 children into the world with a squad of different women AND you're committing all your woke(not funny) hours towards work and tweeting stupid shit... you're pretty much guaranteed a recurrent absent shitty father of the year award. "Fuck you dad" seems like an inevitability?

Haha, I'm guessing you haven't come across this:


Thats one of the problems for jack asses on the top... no-one to slap them back into reality when they start going off tangent.
(I mean I've been slapped back into reality once or twice, I just assume most people have?)

Does he think all the Trumpers in Texas with the 8" lift 40" tires diesel pickup trucks with "Prius Pestiside" bumper stickers are going to start buying Tesla's?
Maybe he'll add a coal rolling addon to the Cybertruck to spray actual coal powder on nearby cyclists.
