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.

Why would they be brown. Greeks aren't brown.

Dark olive skin is what my cursory googling led me to believe. Not that I super give a fuck about the color of someone's skin let alone in the past LET ALONE in a fictional fantasy piece. But like I didn't get the impression that they were porcelain white either.

They aren't white either. Which is what counts to racists like musk.

To them anything else is "brown".

Modern Greeks aren't.

No real idea about thousands of years and several times being conquered what they'd look like really.

Fact is it's weird to get hung up on or care about really.

I'm of South East Asian descent I know Greek people who are darker than me, yet I'm brown and Greeks are not?
