Thanking an employee for joining before termination sounds insincere and odd. I understand it’s to appear polite however I don’t think it should be best practice.
A more appropriate opening would be “Hi X, I have some difficult news to share.”
… as that would be quite something, given that your office apparently … burst into flames, not too long ago?
You ok?
As per our previous emails, I’ll be reporting that to the city fire marshall as well, as you really would think a sprinkler system of some kind would have tiggered.
I’m sure you don’t still keep that pannini press in your office, so my only guess would be some kind of electrical outlet or breaker is not up to code.
Anyway, I’ll look over the IAR when I get back from the vacation I am currently on.
Hey sp3ctr4l,
Please sit down. I have some difficult news to share. Unfortunately the company has decided to end your employment effective today. You will get your record of employment by email and enclosed is your package. Please sign and return as soon as possible.
Security will escort you out.
Bye.

I have had to do the termination not that long ago, it’s not that great for the other side either, thanking them for joining and not avoiding the meeting is mot insincere, it would be way more awkward if the employee would be avoiding the meeting
Not sure if you are aware, but there are countries that exist outside the US.
Were you by any chance terminated from your job as a Geography teacher? i can see why

HR are professional gaslighters, that is literally their job.
Human Resources.
You, the human, a resource, for a company.
Their job is to manage and modify your behavior, as a resource, cattle with feelings.
…they are literally professional gaslighters.
It’s now “people and culture.”
I am writing to you today to inform you that I do not care.
Have a great day! =D
Hello sp3ctr4l,
We do not appreciate your tone as it doesn’t fit in our culture of respecting and hailing to corporate.
We will be writing you up for insubordination, violating our respect in the work place policy, and poor performance.
Here is your improvement action report.
Regards,
I hope this message finds you well,

So they knew it was coming.
I don’t know if they knew or not
No one cares that you are politely ruining their life.
I’ve been fired into direct homelessness, and I made that HR cry.
Everyone should do that.
You need to feel that bad.
Otherwise, we will just keep going on with this inhuman system.
Yes, all interactions are the same, and there is no place for nuance, how could I forget this, apologies
Apology not accepted.
You need to be crying, when you strip people’s healthcare from them.
