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.

They seem to honestly believe that Musk will get human beings to Mars before the end of Trump's next term (under the assumption he has one).

I'm sorry. This won't happen in Trump's next term (assuming he has one). This won't happen in my lifetime. This won't happen in the lifetime of anybody currently over the age of 20.

MAYBE someone who was born today will see human beings land on Mars.

MAYBE the grandchildren of someone born today will see human beings build something semi-permanent on Mars.

You are mistakenly assuming the human being travelling to Mars will still be living.

I don't think they're legally considered human beings once dead. 🤣
