$137 million?! How the hell did they get to that number for racial taunts no matter how real or egregious? They could have had a car accidentally fall on him and kill him and it would be cheaper

No disrespect to his job, but he was an elevator operator. I doubt that Tesla was paying him anywhere close to $100k, let alone $200k.

I didn't catch that as I didn't research further. I'm not in the slightest surprised they gave him a life of pay for damages despite how stupid that is.

Who gets the punitive damages, the state?

For taunts? Wow. I used to work in HR and all this does is make them not hire people who are potential lawsuits. Granted they won’t say it out loud but if I looked at an applicants FB page and they had some blm fist or described themselves as an activist I’d throw away their application. Same for anyone with pronouns in bio.

Not a bad policy. Maybe if enough did this students in college would get the hint

That's because you didn't want to help hollow out the corporation into a progressive skinsuit. The typical HR employee would hire this type of person for the same reason you wouldn't.

And when suddenly they're grabbed at their car one night by their favorite diversity hire, they'll pikachu.jpg and try to pretend it never happened.

There is more to this story, that more is Jeff Bezos, Boeing, and UAW.

I reiterate, the powers that be will never let Elon Musk put a single Starship on Mars. They do not want a repeat of the American "mistake". They will use every single means at their disposal to prevent that, including attacking his other companies, environmental regulatory harassment, and lawsuits against NASA to prevent SpaceX from getting any contract (even though they are now the most reliable and cheapest Space launch provider).

They're already suing him for not hiring non-US nationals despite it being illegal for him to hire anyone who isn't a citizen due to ITAR and/or other arms control treaties/laws.

They aren't even being coy about this being about trying to push board changes at Tesla. Lawfare never changes.

oh look the communists using one of their favorite weapons to bludgeon successful people into submission

The work camps approach, brothers. When we rebuild please remember the fatal mistake - listening to women and giving women power, ever, under any circumstances. Anyway, try to survive the starving times.

LOL! What a joke of a country the US is turning to! Tesla just just declare bankruptcy and close everything in the US. Go to China.

Shit, if I knew I could make that much just being racist, I'd have stopped biting my tongue years ago.
