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.

He's never going to love you back, Elon.

[–] [email protected] 37 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Nah Elon is an idiot with money Trump loves those

[–] FlyingSquid 11 points 5 months ago (1 children)

He loves their money. He doesn't love any person but Donald J. Trump, Sr.

I don't know, I bet he jerks off to the thought of spanking himself on the ass with a rolled up Forbes magazine.

The cynical part of me wonders how many of these "we're cooked" comments are part of a psyop to discourage Democrats from voting

[–] ArgentRaven 27 points 5 months ago

I think the "Biden is suddenly to old" stuff is a psyop, this close to the election. But the "we're cooked" is a general feel I'm getting from my friends, too. It feels bleak. However, I'm in Oklahoma so there's no way my state wouldn't go for Trump. So maybe elsewhere there's different opinions? I hope.

I also vote, even though I know none of my votes have counted since it's always a Republican that wins, here. I don't want anyone to have the satisfaction that they took my hope and resolve away.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I wish my feelings of being cooked weren't real, but unfortunately it's felt this way for some time. I'm still voting.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Yeah, same.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago

We are cooked. Vote for Dems anyway.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago (3 children)

I'm still not voting for him, but his chances of being president just went up. The last thing he needed is martyrdom.

[–] Psychodelic 4 points 5 months ago

Sure but anything could happen. I mean, someone could assassinate Biden

Now imagine what that would do for the Dem's chances of getting Harris elected. Oh yeah. It's all coming together

[–] GladiusB 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

He isn't a martyr though. A martyr dies don't they?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

He already compares himself to every highly esteemed figure there ever was. Captain Bonespurs didn't need that.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Navy Seals wouldn't have missed.

[–] riodoro1 4 points 5 months ago

The cynical part of you should see how corrupt the system is and how little our votes change our lives for the better.

[–] GladiusB 2 points 5 months ago

How many have very few comments and are inflammatory? Russian bots at it again? Maybe?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

We are cooked. I'm looking at Express Entry options in Canada.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Come on don't be like that

[–] BrokenGlepnir 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Oh man, he got Elon musks support. Didn't have that before. I'll still vote against the guy trying to end the country as we know it and replace it with an actual dictatorial regime.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Uh, did I say I wasn't going to vote? I'm not sure where you're getting that idea from.

[–] cmbabul 5 points 5 months ago

I think we already were, but this kinda cements it

[–] Dettweiler42 27 points 5 months ago

"Don't forget about me!"

[–] homesweethomeMrL 25 points 5 months ago

No shit, Elmo’s a seditionist prick? Huh.

[–] ashok36 14 points 5 months ago

A lot of people just saw the race tilt wildly in trumps favor and are or will be moving very fast to put themselves in trumps good graces before he starts nationalizing companies and executing hold outs for treason.

Expect to see more of this shit on Monday.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago

If there's one person who i'd rejoice if they died...correction, two people...

I know this guy makes robot sounds after posting.

Nobody cares.
