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'd be in the banks' best interest to not sell the debt then, right? Unless they think they can get more for it than the shares are worth.

This is will beyond my knowledge. I imagine if they seized his shares that would have a huge negative impact on TSLA stock price, potentially making them worth less that they could have sold the debt for. I think if he doesn't pay, the banks are in for hurt no matter what.

That's a good point, it's strange they accepted shares as collateral at all then if just claiming them can cause them to tank in value.
