Enough Musk Spam

For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.

No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.

Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.

Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.

Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

2 weeks is plenty of time for a shallow, skin-only graze to heal. And ear cuts can bleed a ton.

Ears, scalp, cuticles… all places that bleed like crazy.

Especially when you’re on blood thinners

In addition, a competent plastic surgeon would likely make it look like it had never happened. I hope he goes to jail for the crimes he committed, but do people really expect him to wear an ear diaper the rest of his life?

Honestly, I thought he would milk it until the election somehow. We can't be right all the time I guess!

[–] TehWorld 5 points 3 months ago

Note that I believe he will milk it forever, but he’s also fairly vain.

[–] barsquid 1 points 3 months ago

He wears orange facepaint every day, so yeah, I did.

I was thinking the same thing. But something tells me the people who'd be in charge of banning the photographer, if not Musk himself, wouldn't know that.

There was supposedly a big chunk out of his ear. Now it's just a skin-only graze that heals super fast? Very convenient
