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.

American elections are not actually elections, they are private decisions made by Party Committees and votes are just a suggestion by the “constituents”.

Each party privately selects their own candidate to run, independent of the voters’ will, and then the actual “government” election run by the government is where those privately selected agents get to duke it out in public.

As always, liberal accusations of “authoritarian” socialist states are just another confession. The DNC plays this game the same way the RNC does.

What other logical explanation is there for the lack of universal public healthcare, education, social safety net, Roe v Wade not being codified into law, PATRIOT act, Glass Steagall repeal, 2008 bank bailout, SLABS imploding the economy, illegitimate Supreme Court, RBG and Pelosi holding onto power until they are literal corpses, 6 million dead civilians in the Middle East, 200,000 dead Palestinians, women’s and LGBT rights being stripped away with literally zero federal pushback, committing state sponsored terrorism on Cuba for a century, the list goes on forever.

All done with wholehearted and enthusiastic DNC complicity.

the closest involvement you've had to politics is a parade, isn't it
