Elon Musk Called Me a "Moron" Because I Called Out His Exploitative Labor Practices
11 September 20
lon Musk thinks I’m a “moron” because I called out his exploitative labor practices. He neglected to mention that he:
- Illegally threatened to take away stock options if employees unionized (the judge in this case found Musk and Tesla violated labor laws in 11 additional ways)
- Fired an employee one day before his stock options vested
- Fired staff after promising them they could take unpaid time off if they didn’t feel comfortable returning to work during COVID
- Has had 43 workers’ rights violations filed against his company since 2010
- Has had 145 complaints filed with California’s Department of Fair Employment and Housing since 2014
He can call me every name in the book — it won’t change the fact that he’s a modern-day robber baron, through and through.
