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.

This would be like if someone bought out everyone's favorite restaurant and totally ruined it. The food is worse, the staff are rude, and the only people who still hang out there are a bunch of jerks. And now you're telling me the owner sometimes shows up and kicks you out of your seat because you're in "his" spot?
The obvious remedy is to stop fucking going. And yet, people keep fucking going.
In this scenario, there is no comparable restaurant, unfortunately
Unpopular opinion (at least in the Fediverse): while mastodon exists and is nice (if a little harder to grasp), Threads actually has a sufficient user base to be considered a substitute for Xitter. I was watching it during the debates and there was lively enough conversation to be interesting and still unable to read every comment that tagged the debate in real time.
Down with centralized social media and all that, but just a suggestion if you miss the volume of posts and the centralized interface that Xitter dumps out.
