#1 Same accusations as they used against chick-fil-A, which seems to get far better employees than any other fast food place.

#2 
It is clear that many of the "current" (soon to be weeded out) Bigoted Twitter Staff are MORAL-PHOBIC.

#3 I'm sure lots of them will land "work-from-home" gigs with the new Ministry of Truth. Of course, those jobs will be gone in 6 months too.

#4 Pity the straight white guys who are required to work with those crazies.

#8 Should not be an issue recruiting in Texas, and I suspect the upgrades over the current staff will benefit the company and its users.

#9 You'll note that Agrawal and the board have said nothing negative about Musk, and Elon has been very circumspect in his comments about Twitter.
Turns out there's "disparagement clause" in the buyout deal. Nobody gets to call names. The penalty? $1Billion, against either side.

#10 That's how business works. Lots of lawsuits have a clause like that too. Whatever gets it closed is fine with me. The lefty tech press is down to a story a day about how Musk already violated the deal or can't pay for the deal, or whatever. It isn't whistling past the graveyard, it's bawling hysterically on hands and knees past the graveyard and I'm enjoying every minute of it.

#11 Musk participates in many employee interviews looking for tell-tale traits of genius. (His IQ is 155).

Doubt he's going to find much intelligent life in this playground
