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 assuming you're canadian from your lemmy instance.

I don't know how the previous allies of USA haven't banned x yet. It's been crystal clear since the day he bought it, that it was nothing but a far-right propaganda tool.

The west will fall because of their tolerance to intolerance if they don't get their fucking heads out of their collective asses soon.

Most wealthy western countries so fully embraced neoliberalism that opposing private enterprise seems impossible. Even private enterprise owned by people who have embedded themselves within other countries' governments (maybe even especcially so, since public representatives very often have private business interests, and they wouldn't want those interests harmed for their activity as a politician). Eapecially private enterprise that is popular, and despite our online bubbles, Twitter remains popular, even as users clutch their pearls each time they log in.

Actions would be much more likely once the shift to bluesky is much more complete, but with Musk at least nominally set to be exiting his direct association with the administration, he will be regaining his plausible deniability.
