With some it could be a skin color reaction. With others, I think they pictured a bunch of "lefties" getting the axe not realizing that there are people from all sides of the spectrum that work for the government. Or they thought it would be a bunch of office workers, or WFH people, and it has turned out to be park rangers and others with lower paying jobs. Or they don't realize there are a whole lot of federal government employees in very red states. Or they just thought it wouldn't be someone they know, or even themselves, but it is. I saw a parody video this morning of a young woman getting fired for being an "equity developer" and therefore a "DEI" hire. Turns out she develops programs for "financial equity." She asks if they just did a "CTRL-F search" on certain words and decided who to fire from that. IMHO, she has figured out one of the tools the high-IQ brilliant minds at DOGE are using to find victims without knowing what the hell they are looking at. * SLMR 2.1a * Now, witness the power of this fully OPERATIONAL tagline! --- SBBSecho 3.20-Linux * Origin: capitolcityonline.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/HTTP (1:2320/105) .
