Thread regarding Ford layoffs

Seems Like It’s the Same 3 People Plus Me That Post on Here

I can tell by the writing styles that 4 people do 99% of the posting/commenting.

Phase out

@jk+1jr72fg43 First order of panic control will be unwarranted optimism supported by delusions of competence.

In phase two, the obstructionists will slither out of their lairs and try to smother our dreams.

Ignorance and fear will fuel rumors that get repeated until they morph into common knowledge (real posts = AI / ChatGPT).

You do not speak for our people. We the people reject your ability to allocate resources based on bad information you deployed and favoritism!

No phase 3 this time! You are the AI. You are the learning model that has a cutoff date of knowledge from 2021! We are in 2025!

If you can HEAR me, please give me a sign with your eyes.

Also, I love me a candy paint red jeep wrangler with the doors off in the summer. What a vibe. Grand Cherokees are really nice too! Don’t forget the Silverado. Michigan success stories that our kids will remember positively.

You should get up and take a walk, or you might get an embolism!

I post in this forum as one of the many here that support our leadership and the direction the company is headed for success via the Ford+ Plan. My guess is all the negative and criticizing posts are from a small few of disgruntled ex-Ford employees and do not represent the greater employee base, especially those who are HTHD or work in Model e.

Turnabout is not fair play. It’s an unproductive blame cycle, not some sort of poetic justice. It’s easy to we-ponize the idea of “context” selectively to justify or dismiss grievances. It’s not that we have to feel responsible for behaviors of people in a similar cohort, it’s more so that the impact of doing so eliminates bias. Rejecting that a group is responsible for an individuals action is sad that it is sometimes necessary.

zero-sum game
a situation in which one person or group can win something only by causing another person or group to lose it

Equality should not discriminate and include all. I get how ironic it is to apologize on behalf of a group for the actions of one that same way the actions of one affect a group. Discrimination is really a double bind and you highlight the absurdity of speaking for one group well, discrimination happens to all backgrounds and one pain should not be another gain, but life is too complex to wish for binary outcomes. It’s the same thing with age bias. One person being old (defined by age) should not subject their entire group to a generalization such as how older generation is perceived but while it seems we we-ponize context to favor us maybe some people are old because they don’t change the way they are thinking and those people can be associated to a group that isn’t defined by actual age. However, if we acknowledge that then it’s important to have a holistic lens and acknowledge the existence of a reverse age bias. But notice how there’s a median for age if you look at it like a continuum whereas with race there is no middle ground because you are who you are. That makes it inherently discriminatory. Sometimes, we get dragged into fights that aren’t ours just because of race and sometimes we pay the price of it. Sometimes, we evolve and newer generations don’t know what the older ones are fighting over because those past grievances relate to them. However race transcends hierarchical ordering and influence for it moves laterally unless you acknowledge something like a caste system. Apologizing for our race reinforces group thinking which is t good however let’s look at this from a generational standpoint of a younger individual wanting their turn. Just because a younger individual wants their turn DOES NOT MEAN at the loss of an older individual, in theory we can acknowledge that it could, but the main point is to recognize that it requires us to challenge groups directly to slowly change group thinking. Some people say that you need to be in the place to be able to make the change you wish to see and that is not the case when you are born into a certain race, the power to influence is something you are born with so as long as you have the minimal socio economic baseline to reach your lateral network.

Studying generations to at grew up in a melting pot provide new information to how society today could operate better whether that’s race or seeing outliers thanks to the opportunity provided to use in the Information Age to compete with a little more agency of destiny than before, such as through code and I’m not talking Hammurabi, evolutionarily genetic may be plausible as juxtaposition using continuum of code in the abstract-o-meter with age and ideas as the variables. Is it age bias to reject eye for eye thinking? Protect the ones that still have eyes to not lose them and continue a cycle until reasoning is lost in its final round of t-t for tat. The best we can do is have the opportune moment using the cards dealt to us and the weight of influence we raised with the chips to make the difference that we can opposed to rewarding the zero sum idea that causes us to be conquered easily through division.

It’s very complex. Evolutionary one might say. Genetics. I recommend watching the Stanford YouTube videos on evolutionary biology, a fascinating topic that is relevant but not a card I played in my writing here would be the topic of kinship selection. The lectures speak of the topic in matrix with game theory. One would say this game is bigger than black and white. We just have to ensure modern programming doesn’t vendor-lock us for when it no longer serves the time.

A great philosopher from this generation once said, “for this life… I cannot change”. Will the fire in the torch that gets passed down be an old flame?

Y'all need to stop makin all this ruckus...

I got hired to Ford last September. And I'm already promoted to a LL6.

Things is great here. Finally a company that UNDERSTAND what it's like for all their employees. They made it more fair to all us groups.

There was a time in this here country when certain groups did the brunt if the work while another groups got all the credit and spoils. Now we are back to that way of life - it's just that you people find y'all on the wrong end of the whip. You ain't had no problems with it before so why start now?

I hope things stay the way they is. It's looking great for so many people nowadays.

Maybe y'all should try taking a knee before NASCAR races to drum up some attention for your cause!

Just have them record their screen and make them do it until 7pm and send it over so we can all review hours of footage to make sure they followed the simple order @fz+1jr72fg43

Good morning beautiful
Is this some sort of emotional contagion test or something like Facebook did in 2014? But this time it is a misinformation variant of sorts? Because what you said sounds too detailed and really makes me wonder if I’m blind or my gut is telling me the truth and you’re trying to pull one over. Let’s circle back after our daily standup in a slack vc channel and have someone share there screen on this thread refreshing on interval to be absolutely certain we all are witnessing the same things or not

Before “haha , my earlier post got deleted. I've been caught”
Was posted, there were originally 5 comments here, I replied to someone, then later in the afternoon, I checked, only my comment was there, checked hours later to only see the quoted comment was the oldest comment posted. There wasn’t anything inappropriate either, basically the exact same discourse as what’s currently here. One was talking about a guy warning others around the office about believing stuff on here, another talking about how they made up their last comment and people believed it. Another few saying they just read here, don't post, but comment on occasion. Another from a guy saying he’s from GM but reads here and comments occasionally, but everything got deleted lol.

@fj+1jr72fg43 are you sure you didn’t post in a thread belonging to another company? I saw when this thread got its first post and everything seemed normal to me, that’s why

OP if you are really analyzing writing styles of posters, you have way too much time on your hands or must “work” in model eh.

That said, even before seeing your comment I was thinking a lot of the recent posts seemed to be written by a cheap AI. Probably HR trying to bury threads they don’t want people to see.
