In a dramatic display of melodrama, a federal employee equated the simple task of replying to an email from Elon Musk to the oppressive conditions of living in North Korea. This outlandish comparison comes as leftist federal workers struggle to meet Musk’s reasonable request for a “proof of life” email outlining their weekly contributions.
Elon Musk clarified at President Trump 47’s inaugural cabinet meeting that this was merely an initiative to ensure accountability for those benefitting from taxpayers’ hard-earned dollars. The intrigue lies in how many responses will go unreturned, revealing inactive accounts or those neglecting their duties.
A particular employee found herself overwhelmed by the task, creating an 8-minute video expressing the alleged trauma induced by the email. In her tearful testimony, she likened the experience to life under a totalitarian regime.
Government Employee: I have plenty of things to report. I did plenty of work last week. But the feeling of just absolute existential dread that I felt typing out a response to that email is something that I wish I could convey to everyone because it felt like such a glimpse into the reality that they are trying to create, and it was terrifying. It felt like, You will do what I say or else. The email that we received did not say that failure to respond would be taken as a resignation. But the Host on X did say that…
… The feeling that I felt responding to that email was such a glimpse into a possible future here, probable future here, if we don’t fucking do something about it. It felt so scary and so heartbreaking. It felt much like I would imagine living in a place like what I always imagine North to be like would be like, where the energy is, Yes, master, your wish is my command.
This response exemplifies a severe disconnect from reality.

Clearly, this snowflake’s overly emotional response does little to garner sympathy.
Out of touch with reality, to say the least https://t.co/n0rYd2ROiY
