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.

I’m glad they put Sebastian Stan in charge instead

I read the title as "Jesus was a bum."

It wasn't a burn, it was just the obvious truth.

I'll never get over people comparing this man to Tony Stark.

He looks like "Poochie" from The Simpsons.

I bet Elmo has all kinds of cool ideas for making the government "more efficient." Like not going after billionaires to pay their share of the tax burden.

Everyone in this thread is absolutely fuming over a goofy meme image, and thinks that chastising someone for being silly because they decided they're too old for it is "what a burn", lol.

Wow.

There's a wider context. Trump has declared his intent to have Musk be in charge of "Government Efficiency".

This suggests he bought his way into a position and considers it a joke, a pretty dumb one too. Also, another stab at trying to make Dogecoin a thing again is highly likely.

So mililons of dollars to buy his way into an administration position that he made up and the end result is a dumb meme... It's just some rich person bullshit.
