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.

Musks actions enabled those russian warships to launch missiles into ukranian cities with no regard to civilian casualties. So instead of the russian aggressors being sunk and killed in port, it's innocent civilians that die. What a great trade off.

Also, look at grandparent's comment that started this thread you're commenting in. Space-X now has a DoD contract to provide Ukraine access to starlink. Then go lookup starshield, the planned military focused offshoot of starlink. The point is Musk has no issue selling shit to the US gov to help participation/perpetuation of war.

So don't give us that russian talking point that musk's actions were to avoid blood on his hands. That weak argument was so easy to poke holes in, and it's insulting you'd think anyone would fall for.
