It really does not seem so to me. They complain about size of it, speed of it and the way it was done. They are however reacting in more of emotional way.
The thing is, Musk really went out of his way to troll Twitter employees and those who like twitter. And his fans really went out of way to mock fired people, call them lazy and so on. It was not just layoff, it was layoff designed to let you know how much looser you are.
People respond in kind, with schadenfreude and bullying back.

I haven't seen much of that here in HN though. Do you have examples?
> It was not just layoff, it was layoff designed to let you know how much looser you are.
Again, I don't see that. It just needed to be done. Could have been handled better? Were mistakes made? Probably. But I don't think it was intentional to show what a loser people are.

> Some mistakes will be made. That's good. Because at least some decisions will be made too. We'll fix them... But I think it's so much better than where things were not very long ago.
