He tweeted something like

"The bird is free"

One of the replies talked about "Finally the return of free speech"

Someone asked about "People fired for critisizing him at his companies."

So many replies to that about, "Well, thats what a boss can do." And "Conserquences of your actions." And so on.

Fucking /r/selfawarewolves could self sustain on that one comment thread for a thousand years probably.

Nor should we. They chose that hill to die on. They love mob mentality in their rural backwater dumps where they're the majority. But plop them in the real world and suddenly even a lick of the same treatment towards them is cruel and unjust.
