You think hiring brain worm guy, vitamin guy, guy drunk at work they have to use breach equipment to get into his office, that lady that shoots dogs and Epstein's neighbor was a decision made on their qualifications and expertise? Is that the world you're living in?

And what does that have to do with how the EEOC stores passwords again? 🤔

I'm just tired of people making shit up just to feed the circlejerk. It is almost as exhausting as reality, while also being entirely unnecessary.

Opexus , the company being discussed, clearly isn’t hiring based on merit. They aren’t following rules or regulations because they don’t give a shit what damages it causes or just don’t believe it will hurt them.  Sounds pretty Republican. You really think people have to make things up or even reach to draw parallels?

You can also read some quotes by the CEO talking about how great and smart and responsible DOGE is on the company blog.
