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.

Not the biggest fan of eat the rich.
IMO purge the parasites is more accurate.
Eat the rich makes it sound like they are intrinsically more valuable whereas, like parasites, all they do is take value at the expense of the host.
It’s not even a fatal thing, their hoarding is a mental illness that must be addressed for the good of society.
The problem with purge the parasites is that chuds will assume you mean people on benefits and then agree with you.
No that’s intentional. The problem with these slogans is that large populations have nuance.
If you say eat the rich, those chuds would either think your talking about upper middle class people or just reject it cause they can imagine one good rich person.
Conversely, when it comes to people on benefits, even thought the vast majority don’t abuse the system, the chud’s echo chamber is full of the rare examples that do.
So the solution is to acknowledge that being a parasite can happen in all walks of life, even though all the negative effects come from the rich ones.
They are indeed more valuable as food than as humans.
The bar isn't high.
It's from some novel I believe, i personally prefer tax the rich because that describes best what i think needs to happen.
I take it mean similarly, but using more aggressive language for emphasis. Like consume what they've taken back into the commons.
True but it accurately describes the targets and the effects of doing it.
