I think it's a good way to divert the musk spam. Post everything Musk en Xitter there so /c/technology etc. stay interesting.

[–] Drewsteau 39 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Agree. It’s pretty annoying scrolling through the tech communities and seeing the same article about him posted 5 different times lol

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago

Absolutely. Post in it's own community, let the rest of us breathe

[–] [email protected] 44 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Isn't it focused on negative news about musk? Which I enjoy, not gonna lie.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Do you ever see positive news posted about him anyway?

[–] [email protected] 40 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I hear he's lost a bunch of money. That's a definite positive in my book.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

LMAO I agree

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's been rare since he called that dude a pedophile for rescuing kids because his shitty "invention" didn't work.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

That was definitely the turning point in his general PR

[–] EdibleFriend 3 points 1 year ago

True but it's still just weird? They don't want to spam about Musk but.. it's literally all they fucking talk about there? It's their entire purpose?

[–] BrokenToshy 40 points 1 year ago (3 children)

It's like the Reddit communities where people go to discuss how they've moved on from Reddit

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I remember r/FatPeopleHate, where people who hated fat people went to look at pictures of very very fat people, with diseased bodies, lots of exposed folded skin, all of that.

The pictures they ended up bringing to r/all were truly awful.

I wonder if they're still doing that. Somewhere out there, 5 000 guys and girls sharing pictures of fat people, looking at them, and talking about how much they hate looking at them.

i thought the point was to funnel all musk spam there so that you only have to block one community

[–] [email protected] 30 points 1 year ago

Block the community you coward

[–] liquid_buffalo 28 points 1 year ago (2 children)

There is no irony on the internet. /c/enoughmuskspam is just spreading more Musk spam. Communities where users make fun of their racist uncle's memes are just spreading racist memes.

[–] Cabrio 9 points 1 year ago

There's no intelligence on the Internet, enoughmustspam is containing it all to one instance you can block to avoid the bulk of it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah... It's been a minute now so idk what's happening there now, but /r/terriblefacebookmemes always had an unsettling amount of people in the comments that just agreed with the messed up memes. In particular, that subreddit almost lost all degree of civility every time a fucked up meme about trans people was shared... That really brought the assholes outta the woodwork

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago

The point is to have only one community to block

[–] stevedidWHAT 18 points 1 year ago

You mean people really really don’t like the richest man in the world? And after all he’s done for us? So crazy

[–] samus12345 13 points 1 year ago

Be the change you want to see. Stop posting and commenting about it.

I actually kind of like hearing about his ongoing effort to waste billions of dollars and destroy his own platform, but the community is definitely misnamed. It contributes more Musk-related content than the rest of Lemmy put together.

[–] Cabrio 9 points 1 year ago

It's not misnamed, it was named that intentionally to consolidate the Musk spam there so other users can block the community to avoid Musk.

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

Yeah, I’m interested in the occasional Musk story if something significant happens, but every little thing he does is talked about to death at this point by both people who love him and people who hate him.

Hate the guy as much as you want, there’s no denying that he’s got a lot of news outlets and people giving him attention. And positive or negative, that’s exactly what he wants.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

It'd be more forgiving if these "stopXspam" communities were just "fuckX"

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I wish everyone would just stop visiting that site and posting screenshots of t*eets.

Let it die harder than reddit.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Teets? What is this, c/farming?

/s

[–] CliveRosfield 1 points 1 year ago

That community fails to understand Musk operates in “any publicity is good publicity” nowadays so it ironically helps him. Blocking that community was the best thing I did and recommend everyone do.
