Elon Musk reveals reason for sacking nearly 4000 Twitter employees; 'No choice, but...'

Twitter sacked roughly half of its workforce on Friday, one of the worst things the social network has seen in nearly 16 years of existence. Facing widespread criticism, Elon Musk on Saturday justified the restructuring decision. Musk stressed that "unfortunately there is no choice." He also added that Twitter is losing $4 million a day. AFP accessed an internal document that revealed that 3800 employees of Twitter's 7500-strong staff have been sacked. Watch this video to learn more.

You always throw the sick dogs out of a company. And the sick dogs at Twitter have done a lot of harm. With politically biased censorship everywhere.

*Dr. B.R. Ambedkar:* The allegiance of a Muslim does not rest on his domicile in the country which is his but on the faith to which he belongs. To the Muslim, Where it is well with me there is my country is unthinkable. Wherever there is the rule of Islam, there is his own country. *In other words, Islam can never allow a true Muslim to adopt India as his motherland and regard a Hindu as his kith and kin*

Elon Musk now owns the company so he has to protect his money.

Businesses are meant to be profitable and employees instead of pulling Elon should ask banks for mercy

*Dr. B.R. Ambedkar:* Until complete population transfer of muslims to pakistan and nonmuslims to India is done, the question of majority vs minority will again appear and will produce disharmony in India
