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.

Yep. Don't fuck with our owners.
That was Bernie Madoff's mistake.
Weird. And here I was thinking that Madoff's mistake was running a huge Ponzi scheme.
The mistake was who he targeted with said scheme, ripping off market investors on a broad scale and not just tricking foolish commoners out of their pension cheques.
Most of these schemes are never publicized and barely punished white collar crimes, or actively ignored as MLM pyramid schemes are. Madoff made the mistake of going way, way too big and thinking he could get away with it.
And Market Capitalism the largest pyramid scheme of all time, whats your point?
