Elon Musk reposted this on X before quietly deleting it: “Stalin, Mao, and Hitler didn’t murder millions of people. Their public sector employees did.” Picture below. Let’s be clear—America’s public service workers are our nurses, teachers, firefighters, librarians, postal workers, park rangers, air traffic controllers, and countless others who dedicate their lives to keeping our society running. They chose public service over becoming rich. This kind of rhetoric isn’t just misleading—it’s dangerous. It fuels hostility toward public servants and encourages people to see them as enemies rather than the essential workers who educate our kids, protect our communities, maintain infrastructure, and provide critical services. We’ve already seen threats against federal employees escalate. Reckless statements like this only put them at greater risk. He needs to go. Please work on getting him out of our government.
