TL:DR; The Salesforce CEO at a company's annual all hands gathering asked international employees to please rise in the audience, then made a "joke" that ICE agents were in the back of the room ready to nab them.
Guillotines for billionaires is the moderate choice at this point

@mathowie Let me see the history books from 1930’s…
Yes. I see. Fascism was very much in fashion with the wealthy in USA back then, too!

@kims @mathowie Benioff has been stepping on this particular rake repeatedly. I imagine his comms folks are apoplectic

@jalefkowit@vmst.io @kims@mas.to @mathowie@xoxo.zone He is not stepping on a rake. He is doing this deliberately, with purpose. You help provide cover for people like him, I assume inadvertently, by framing this behavior as some kind of gaffe.

@adr I recently learned Benioff worked for Larry Ellison at Oracle for years before starting Salesforce and things begin to track after that

Salesforce did just layoff almost 1000 people at the beginning of the month. (https://www.businessinsider.com/salesforce-cuts-jobs-executive-changes-2026-2). He does this now that people are rattled, how fucked up.

@jalefkowit @mathowie
I remember the closing lines of the NYT piece on the same subject:At the end of the interview, [Benioff] turned to a public relations executive. He could be heard asking why her mouth was wide open and if he had said anything he shouldn’t have.
“What about the political questions?” he asked. “Too spicy?”
Then he hung up.
They really live in a different reality -- where all the tragedy they're causing is just part of some sports-event or something. Reality TV.

@mathowie Every time I hear our upper management talk about doing things in Salesforce, it makes me want to gag. It’s software for douchebags, by douchebags.

@mathowie These are the people who make money for him. I'd be sending out resumes immediately after that meeting.

@mathowie I'm not surprised at all I did a training for a nonprofit that worked with Salesforce and the white cis het guy in the training from Salesforce was always making the worst comments to a room full of Black, Brown, Immigrant, Trans & Queer folks (and some of us belonging to multiple of those community) while inside of an NPO office that focused on immigration & that was in 2016.
