What has that to do with the CEO being a woman? Every CEO after Elon "lost", trying to get that mess back on track is going to blow up on Twitter, regardless of sex

Pandering to his misogynistic neofascist fanbase?

It's the exact playbook they used on Bon Appetit. The previous guy was primarily damned with racial suppression and underpayment, They brought in a woman who was supposed to be known as firm but fair who was also a minority. The refilled the cast with minorities but everybody had already gone by then.

When they run that playbook I think it's an attempt to portray the image that the person they put in place isn't an old boy a friend of a friend It was somebody who fought to be where they are. I don't know that any of that's actually true but more as often than not they do put a woman in that position when everybody's mad at the asshole leaving.

They'll leave spez in at least until the next round of layoffs. He'll get a parachute no shove somebody unlikeable and see what they can salvage.
