One of the most fundamental differences between conservatives and liberals is that liberals presume people have a baseline competence where conservatives presume incompetence.

There are so many examples, but with Musk's email request he is assuming most people are incompetent and can't come up with legit answers or just won't do it. And blanket firings are fine because they are all incompetent anyway.
Another tactic, which presumes competence, would be to simply ASK all federal employees to send an email listing 5 ways money can be saved on their job/department. Probably the people doing the jobs would know, yeah?
