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.

Even though there is no such term/trope/meme associated with the name "Cathy" at all?

Though Karen is the most popular example, people often use random names of white women in the same way. Examples include "Staci", "Brenda", etc.

News to me, I've never seen that a single time. Also makes no sense in context to think that's what I was doing, as what I replied to with that was nothing 'Karen-like' at all.

Well, yeah, that's why it pissed them off, probably.

Well, they made themselves mad over their own ignorant assumption, they have no one to blame but themselves for that, lol.

You still called them a name though.
