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.

It has the same bed size as a Ford F150 Lightning. The bed is fully lined as well. Why do you think it's not suitable for those tasks?

Well two things. One, the bed has that weird slope on the side meaning you have to get things directly from the tailgate if you aren't tall enough to reach over.

The second and more important factor: the target demographic. Country boys that do that kind of shit deride electric vehicles.

I can see your first point, but the second one is moot. Just because it's a different target demographic, doesn't make it any less a usable pickup truck.
