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.

You know what, I think Elon's kid is gonna turn out alright.

The interview she gave with NBC says she's a college student studying languages, so if nothing else, she could have a good life as a translator. And you don't generally study languages plural in college if you're not very smart.

I think Elon’s kid is gonna turn out alright.

I'd say she already did.

Yea, I mean she is 20 years old and has her shit together more than many of my friends who are at least a decade older. She's definitely alright.

She's Elon's kid, and she had to suffer through being trans in a society that doesn't broadly accept it (and at least one parent who doesn't), so she's got a lot going against her, but she sure seems to speak out with self confidence, so I hope she's one of those who was able to just grow from the hardships.

iirc her mom (who she actually lives with) is supportive
