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.

$TSLA is down 30% since Q4, costing Musk $106 Billion. Even better, he already put up half of his shares as collateral for personal loans.

Don't worry, the feds will throw enough money at Tesla (and Musk's other businesses) to keep him richer than God. Plus, he's seizing control of the regulators who oversee financial institutions, any creditors who come after him could be risking serious retribution.

You always put a loan on your pumped up stock. The loan is the clean money.

Yeah, you even get to live tax free using that strategy.
