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.

People who agree with defunding the ACLU probably don't contribute to the ACLU anyway, so they have no power to defund it. It receives no government money. I'm no psychologist but at this point Musk really seems like he's in the late stages of some tragic mental syndrome, which is really a shame - he had the potential to accomplish so much - but I just wish he would STFU and stop sucking oxygen out of the room.
No, not really. Everything he promises is either overhyped and underbaked, "ready in 3 years" every year, only viable in fiction, or some combination of all of them.
The people he pays had and still have the potential to do so much, though.

Late stages? You weren’t thinking this like eight years ago when started with the pedo tweets?
I mean... Who hasn't tried to undermine actual professionals saving real lives by making up hypothetical solutions and when they do it successfully, call them a pedophile for weeks on end and get real butthurt?
He's just a typical billionaire. Trump has normalized being a horrible person so now they're comfortable being themselves
Lead poisoning is a bitch. I'm grateful that my parents managed to keep me away from the worst of it in the early '80s. Musk is almost a decade older than me, so he's still a prime victim of lead poisoning. His parents didn't avoid large cities.
Being around his Mum and Dad in apartheid south Africa is what did most of the damage.
The lead thing is mostly in America. Most places banned it LONG before the US did. So no, it is highly unlikely that Elon Musk, born and raised outside the US, has been exposed to lead as a child.
