Federal Employees who got laid off...

So my aunt and I were having a conversation about my mom's delusional political beliefs, like that she told my aunt that no Federal employees were actually fired by Elon, that it was only people who were dead or not working at all. We both assume it's some kind of new Fox News Kool Aid flavor.

I'm wondering if any of you who have been fired/laid off are encountering these people. If so, what do you say to them?
