A SpaceX employee says that she spent seven years working at the company’s headquarters in Hawthorne, California enduring sexual abuse, unequal pay, discrimination, sexual harassment, and retaliation, in a new lawsuit against the company. But her story paints a much graver picture than those individual words can convey, describing widespread harassment and coordinated action to not only enable but also later give cover for sexual coercion, by a man she says was her direct supervisor.
Shitty company culture goes to the top. Of course Elton would hire people who act like that and he would give not even close to a fuck himself - after all, this is a guy who exposes himself to his personal flight attendants and buys ponies for women he harasses, starts affairs and has children with his employees.

It’s pretty telling that you assume which person in a story is malicious based solely on their gender.

Not saying there’s no bias toward seeing women as victims compared to men (https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2011/jun/07/feminism-domestic-violence-men), but the way you phrase it sounds super misogynist.
So maybe you should reflect on that a bit, if you’re serious about getting an actual point across.
The way society views a man reporting sexual abuse should have no bearing on this case. It’s irrelevant.
Everything he said is true, though.
Wow dude. Who hurt you?
That poster is a blatant troll, just look at their name and profile for confirmation.

I’m seeing downvotes.
Why don’t you argue against the point they’re making rather than whose making it.
Hey, fuxk elon
Not allowed to criticize women.
This makes me wonder how many illegitimate children you’re responsible for…
You m’lady your own mom with that fedora?
Elon won’t fuck you, sorry tech bro 😔😔😔

Maybe she needed a job because this is a capitalist society and people without jobs often end up on the streets and that was the job she was best qualified for?
Can we please stop blaming workers for who hires them and how they treat them?
Right. The only job she could get was at SpaceX.
Her own greed had nothing to do with it.
Do you know her situation? No you don’t.
This is some real victim-blaming. She was sexually abused. She was forced to father some asshole’s child. And your response is the employment equivalent of “she shouldn’t have worn that short skirt.”
She was forced to father some asshole’s child.
Lol, what? I thought abortion was legal in California. Are you saying she was raped and kept the baby to term? Use your words, man.
And your response is the employment equivalent of “she shouldn’t have worn that short skirt.”
No it’s not, stop replacing what I’m saying with your own words as though they’re my own.
If you had read the document in the article, you would have known that he tried to force her to abort it after forcing her to have unprotected sex. It starts on page 13 if you want to read it for yourself.
And if that wasn’t what you were saying, what was your point in claiming she was only staying in that job out of greed?
So… she chose to have a child with someone?
Why are you even mentioning this?
what was your point in claiming she was only staying in that job out of greed?
Because, SpaceX is not the only company she could get a job at. That’s what I meant by my sarcastic remark saying “The only job she could get was at SpaceX” and “Her own greed had nothing to do with it.”
How about instead of pivoting and moving goalposts, you admit you were wrong and move on with your life? I don’t think you’re capable of that, though.
Can’t wait to see what irrelevant information you bring up next.
So… she chose to have a child with someone?
What… the… fuck.
How about instead of pivoting and moving goalposts, you admit you were wrong and move on with your life?
Sure, as soon as you read the document that her lawyers filed and realize why the first thing I quoted above was such an incredibly fucked up thing to say.
Freeways aren’t obligated to cater to pedestrians. Workplaces are obligated to foster safe environments for all employees. You can think what you want of things connected to musk but it still SpaceX’s fault at the end of the day.
Not all workplaces are created equal…
And yet they’re all subject to the law.
The law can only protect you from so much.
At some point, you need to be responsible for your own actions.
Real big “leopards ate my face” vibes, here.

No, that would mean she isn’t working for a scummy company like SpaceX.
This is about the most classic victim blaming I have heard.
More like, “leopards ate my face.”
I’m not excusing Tesla, and I don’t give a shit about Tesla, but I have to say that this is basically every tech company. They are being sued like this constantly, and are usually settling out of court to avoid embarrassment.
In Vietnam it is even worse because they don’t sue the company. They just sort of deal with it, or they quit their job. In the best case they get a whole bunch of people to coordinate quitting at the same time.
