People are harassing NASA employees now? Harassing our best and brightest? I hate this country…
I work in the space industry and on a daily basis with NASA. Not a single one has mentioned being harassed
Musk have always had a grudge against nasa
Is it actually happening, or are they trying to make it seem like that’s happening?
Lying about being a victim is a core part of fascist practices. But it’s also a huge part of their demonization of the current system which isn’t filled with fascist leadership yet.
Who is harassing NASA? Is there anything more iconically American than an astronaut? Not anymore, apparently.
Google “Musk ISS astronaut” and click on the News tab. The manchild billionaire already seeded the stupidity, it just spreads now.
Polk’s warning to employees came two days later, after receiving a report about an employee who was “assaulted” at a Starbucks. “This is probably one of the saddest emails I have had to write of late,” he said in the email, which was obtained by ProPublica.
Polk wrote that Nicola Fox, an associate administrator at NASA, said at a meeting that an employee was confronted at a Starbucks by someone “because she was a federal employee.” The worker was working on her computer and was identified by her badge and a logo, he wrote.Existing protocol is to hide the badge when on camera or not on duty. It’s a matter of opsec and not broadcasting the presence of a federal employee to anyone nearby trying to spy on federal employees. The badges are used to access secure facilities, and to log in to computer systems including work laptops. The incident in question and the response seems to indicate that it is unsafe to work in public, and that work should be done at an official/secured location. Only expose a federal ID when necessary and when at an appropriate location. These were technically the rules already, they’re just getting reinforced using the DOGE panic and this Starbucks incident as justification.
That’s how bad the anti-science sentiment has gotten in this country. For fuck’s sake, tell your friends and family to educate themselves with actual facts and information!!!
