This looks like an auto policy from Twitter, take a look at the comment here, and the links:
Thanks, good to know, and glad to hear it was reinstated.
wasn’t this discredited last night? x removed the check when uaw changed it’s icon by default until they confirm they change per standard operating procedure.
Yep. I was just informed of this other post about it.
Glad to hear it was resolved and reinstated.
Carry on. :)But this is another opportunity for five minutes of hate against Elon Musk! Can’t let that slip by.
If you’re referencing 1984, it was a 2-minute hate. And that hate wasn’t directed at anything. It was a visceral trigger to foster an irrational tie with party.
Good catch on the duration, I misremembered that. But it was specifically directed at Emmanuel Goldstein.
The frustrating thing about the real-world case of Elon Musk is that Elon Musk is indeed a horrible person, as far as I’ve been able to discern. He’s an asshole of colossal proportions and I would never work for him or want to know him. But people jump from that to hating everything that Musk has touched, regardless of that other stuff’s merit or actual facts surrounding it. And since it’s a mob hatred any attempt to point out “wait a minute, this thing was actually good” or “this thing had nothing to do with Musk” or “this actually-not-horrible reason is why Musk did this” gets you lumped right into the same Musk-shaped effigy that everyone’s busy burning. I can’t count how many times I’ve been called a Musk-worshipper or been the target of homophobic slurs for trying to correct basic factual errors.
Good points. I’ve run into similar situations with many topics. Human brains are freaking weird.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The move seemingly makes it harder for UAW to maximize reach for its posts on X, just as workers have begun striking, demanding better wages and other benefits.
UAW’s negotiations also seek to expand benefits for union workers involved “in the production of electric vehicles and the batteries needed to power them,” The Intercept reported, and those conversations could also impact Tesla operations.
Last year, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) ordered Tesla to revise its policies “to make clear that it does not prohibit production associates from wearing black union shirts.”
There was also tension earlier this year when Tesla Autopilot Buffalo-based workers tried to unionize, alleging that they were being treated “like robots” and pressured to skip bathroom breaks.
And most recently in April, the NLRB again ruled that Tesla violated labor laws when managers at an Orlando repair shop illegally silenced workers attempting to discuss pay and working conditions, Reuters reported.
In the moments after X reinstated UAW’s verification, the union began posting in support of strikers in Ohio and Missouri, some of them chanting, “No justice, no jeeps!”
