Explain.

I doubt you are capable of doing so.
I would say every EK pilot over time has accepted that job cuts were highly likely. There is no outrage that people have to go and it's sadly a byproduct of the times we are in. What leaves a sour taste in my mouth is how the process has been handled and the lack of communication to the entire pilot workforce. I am not expecting HR to open up and share all the finer details of this process but they could take a leaf out of EY's book and tell us that this round of cuts has finished, so those still employed can perhaps sleep a bit better.
