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.

Why the flying fuck would I want a western car spying on me here in China?
As I indicated by using first person singular in my comment, I was talking about me. What car you (second, singular) get is up to you.
While I did write "If a car has the option of spying on you[...]", I hope my usage of "you" as an informal pronoun was clear. I do realize that I could have used the word "one" instead, or rewritten the sentence entirely. I wrote like I speak, and I unfortunately do not speak like an English professor.
Please remind me, where did you tell me that you live in China?
In the same place you assumed I lived outside of it, I presume.
Because some American car company won't disappear you for having the wrong political opinion.
I mean american aircraft companies wouldn't that is for sure!
...unless they are boeing!
No, instead they'll let the government use you to target a bomb because you drive near someone they don't like.
That has not ever happened (to my knowledge).
