@theorangetheme @vmstan @mathowie a former billionaire.
@caffeinatedgeek @vmstan @mathowie Close enough. Spiritually billionaire.

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 @PapyrusBrigade gross

@mathowie
There is someone on his staff -- probably multiple people -- who get paid to tell him not to say thatHad the guy I was speechwriting for ever slipped in something even *one tenth* as awful as that, I would have fired myself
And not just because it would have woken me up to who/what I was working for, but also because I would have considered myself a failure at my job
Just... holy shit
What a fucking monster
@kims @mathowie Benioff has been stepping on this particular rake repeatedly. I imagine his comms folks are apoplectic

@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.

@mathowie Unless he was roundly booed, his audience was "fellow travelers."
He should have been pelted with merch.

@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!

@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
