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.

So that conversation Elon had with "Adrian" was a fake?
I don't believe it tbh. One slipped pronoun isn't a lot to go on. I wouldn't be surprised if they were the same person and it was an elaborate ruse the entire time, but I'm not convinced yet.
This is not the first time he was caught with a sock puppet. And I can confuse the names of people a lot and call the wrong name but I never referred to myself when talking about someone else, and I never see or heard about It either. It is not a simple mistake, It is too different cognitive speaking I think.
Did he have a voice call with his other sock puppet? No? Oh okay. Thanks for chirping in.
People fuck up pronouns all the time, congrats on being above that genius.
So I do admire what Tesla and SpaceX are doing and I'll watch various things on the topic.
I was watching one where Ron Barron was doing an interview with Gwynne Shotwell, SpaceX’s COO, and he only referred to SpaceX as if it was his.
I know he's a big investor in it, but it drove me nuts.
I don't think I've ever seen that anywhere else, ever.
Like, I guess I'm developing the worlds best AI chips since I own an ETF with NVIDIA?
BBC News' reporting on Starship launches always says things like "Elon Musk's Rocket" and it makes me want to write a strongly worded email of complaint
Okay, Elon
