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.

And why do we even care how popular a CEO is, or who he is at all?
Because he forged a stupid ass cult of personality based on the lie of "Rel lyf eronmaen" so thusly has way too much power even ignoring the fact that in theory he has billions in assets. Note he is also a damned fine example as to why stocks for anything other than resource extraction is fucking asinine.
Personally I think the world would be a lot better if murder was still relatively easy, simply because then we could just kill fuckwads like musk and the world would somewhat improve.
