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.

A bunch of rich people's houses also burned though
Easy to fall into a "this person looks richer than me" justification with that one. Anything below a super-mansion should just be considered off limits for anyone with a conscience.
Sounds good to me.
Altadena--where the images of the "looting" are coming from--is not Pacific Palisades. Living in LA county doesn't mean you're rich, and most people in Altadena weren't.
It's a racially diverse neighborhood that historically wasn't redlined, representing one of the few areas in LA where black families were able to build equity instead of perpetually renting. It's not an accident that these ghouls are showing black people fleeing from their homes with what they can carry and calling it looting, and it's going to get people fucking killed.
Yes, american media's major purpose is to be a racist bias confirmation machine. Doesn't change the fact that looting is cool and good.
If you see someone you think is looting, no you didn't.
You don’t have to accept the racist conservative lie that looting is happening, actually.
Well, it should be.
