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.

Musk has an ego big enough to ask to be VP.
Can you imagine what a dumpster fire that would be?
Can Musk be VP? Want he born in South Africa to South African parents?
That's actually brilliant. That would almost automatically guarantee Trump a victory. Trump is already very likely to win based on current polling, but Musk as VP would push that likelihood even higher. No boot-licking Trumpet would change their vote away from cheetolini because of it, and Musk would add other weirdos.
I know what you're thinking: Musk is ineligible to be VP. But that's only until SCOTUS decides that only applies to individuals that a supermajority of congress declares ineligible. Crazy world.
