That's my reading of their recent post.

Here are their "full context" screenshots:

Do they not see that you're not supposed to talk in that tone to your employees, or anyone for that matter? There's no hint at respect, no "please do this for me" type requests. Just bossing around like an a-hole or like a bad parent you don't want in your life.

the CEO telling an employee to go on Reddit with their personal account to "set the record straight".

Note that in many contexts (i.e. publicly traded companies, companies owned by publicly traded companies) and jurisdictions, “setting the record straight” without disclosing one’s conflicts of interest would be fraud.

But I’m sure Andy is a smart, and careful leader who would get the lawyers to give careful guidance to employees on how to astroturf while staying within the bounds of the law.
