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.

They're correct. But neither is he a space or engineering expert, so maybe we should just ignore his opinions on those things entirely as well.

They are wrong that none of his "endeavors" deal with immigration.

True, but he's only an expert in exploiting visa workers.

well lets not get carried away with the "expert" title.

I actually disagree, Elon has been a high profile, staunch supporter of the Republicans and Trump for a while now and was at a high level position with a lot of influence on the government (head of DOGE), and still has significant influence on Republicans, I think it's only natural to ask someone like that their opinions on government policy.

He isn't a government expert either, so why TF is he fucking with our government?

Fucking Elmo stans are such unbelievable losers it's not even funny.

Gonna laugh my ass off when they lose everything after Tesla stock finally pops.
