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.

All the money in the world and can't get someone to dress him like an adult.

Eh. I don't necessarily care that he doesn't wear a suit.

What bugs me is that he tries to steal the cyberpunk look when he is, blantantly, the villain from those stories. You were never cool enough to wear black, Musk, not in your Matrix cosplay days and not now.

And ffs take the hat off, you paid all that money for hair and now you wear a cap in the Oval Office like some kinda "operater" foh

It's not even about dressing like an adult. It's about dressing like a genuine comfortable human being. Both him and Zuck dress weird and bad because it's a statement about how they have enough money to do whatever the fuck they want. It's if the emperor had no clothes, and a kid yelled "THE EMPEROR IS NAKED!" and everyone laughed and the Emperor instead of realizing that he'd been scammed was like "Yeah, idiot. Because I'm the emperor. I can do whatever the fuck I want"

Maybe those weirdos should focus less on statements and more on being good people. But thats the thing, money cant teach how to be a good person.

Meanwhile Bezos went from bookworm to Mr Clean. I don't like him either, but I gotta respect the attempt to at least not look sloppy.
