Two days after being placed on a paid leave of absence, Matt Mullenweg says he has been reinstated as CEO of Automattic, according to a Slack message seen by TechCrunch. WordPress Executive Director Mary Hubbard confirmed Mullenweg’s return to the CEO role in a Friday post on X, which the official WordPress account shared and Mullenweg reposted.



Note the absence of any sentiment like “because he has more money than me”.
Precisely. Dingus here cant make the inference that CEOs, assholes or not, are morally bankrupt parasites that cause more death and destruction via email than a man with a gun.
