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.

The reach Musk has had after acquiring Twitter (X) is new, but he's always been full of shit for anyone that paid attention.

Whiney shithead with too much money. Kick his ass out of the country. Let him run his companies from South Africa.

Edit:

“Electronic voting machines and anything mailed in is too risky. We should mandate paper ballots and in-person voting only,” he wrote on X in July.

Classic shutting out people with low incomes from the richest shithead on earth.

It's a shame that such a threat to humanity is still able to scurry around the planet and harm people. Earth would be significantly improved without him on it.

It's almost like he's been a purveyor of misinformation all along and people only care now for some reason.
