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.

Dude, the fascists are already getting rid of whoever they want - are we being serious?
It will either be a "hearts and minds" war or a "blood and death" war.
By going low on something like this, it feeds a MASSIVE win to the propaganda machine of the right. It would completely justify their "both sides" rhetoric and lose the "hearts and minds" war.
Citizens asking for it is better. It expresses an opinion, while also letting the left draw a line in the sand, before the right tries to push it through. Politicians trying to do it, would not be worth the cost.
I absolutely agree that fascism is running amok, but there's no legal instances of citizens being strippedbof their status.
This is kind of the holy grail for fascists they would love to be able to un-citizen people.
Giving them a precedent would be a really, really dumb move.
