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.

Any other president that cared for the American people would have offered and grieved for the Americans that got shot that day.

No one knows about them...

No one hears about them...

Biden actually reached out to the widow of the retired Fire Chief. She refused his call because her dead husband wouldn't want her talking to Biden.

Trump never bothered to reach out, but did hold her up as a prop at the RNC.

Only know what around the internet, were others shot? Casualties?

I thought it was 1 dead 2 injured. That's what's on Wikipedia.

Corey Comperatore, the volunteer fire chief was the one who died. Was there another?

Wikipedia does say 2+3. (Including the shooter and Trump). Scroll up to the summery.

Oh, right, yeah. The question was whether others were shot. I didn't think they were concerned about the shooter and obviously Trump wasn't seriously hurt.
