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.

Okay, as much as I hate to say it, Musk is absolutely retarded. Hate saying it as an autistic person who is technically retarded because he gives retards a bad name.
I always assumed this guy had some form of autism... Hes only good at lying and not even good at that
1 have two boys on the spectrum. The most important thing I drill home with them is autism does not entitle you to be an asshole. It's a message no one told Elon growing up.
I'd love to sit down with his ex-wives and unparcel what an absolute shitheel he is.
Well why complain about it on Twitter?
I resent that so many people feel they need to 'balance out' Twitter. Twitter does not need or care about you, and the only way to spite it is to stop participating in it. It is Musk's platform.
I even feel icky when screenshots get so many upvotes. I know it doesn't really matter, but Lemmy/Reddit do not need to feed the trolls.
MFW I read anything regarding Elon Mush:
There’s still time for SpaceX employees to do the right thing and load him on the starship launch this week
Inside which tank, methane or LOX?
Could also bolt a nice handle on the exterior for a sort of reverse Dr. Strangelove
Its all so divorced from current events. We've past "Malibu is burning down because... " and moved straight into "I hate Gavin! I hate Gavin! I hate Gavin!"
And, don't get me wrong, Gavin Newsome is a careerist corporate hack piece of shit who has been falling upwards his whole life. But that's not why Malibu is on fire. Its certainly not why Musk is inventing new slurs aimed at him.
The words he chooses to use.... Tell us just how immature you really are muskrat...
God I hate him.
Getting upset and replying to him just feeds the troll.
Even better, they're actually a paying Twitter user:
I dunno if that's new, if the source of this image is whited it out or what.
I wish more people would understand this. Even negative comments tells him he still has an audience. By posting even derogatory statements directed at him proves you are one of his audience members.
It literally benefits the fascist billionaire and their platform!

Keep acting like you don't have a choice to go to the Nazi bar. Surely history will remember you as the resistance.
One of the cardinal sins of the post WW2 era was the rapid pivot to anti-Communism. The Nazi Bar was the place all the CIA/MI5 spooks went to recruit German/Italian ex-military and their allies/sympathizers. Much like how the Conservative Citizens Council Bar was the place the FBI went to recruit Klansmen and other anti-Civil Rights knee-breakers.
Surely history will remember you as the resistance.
History is written by the winners. And the long arc of history does not bend in the direction its been promised. Fascism is on the upswing and all the Conservative school boards are rushing to scrub the history books of anything that might lead the next generation to be skeptical of white naitonalism or sympathetic to a proletarian democracy.
The long arc of history says any empire, and the USA is a modern version of one, will collapse as any other empire in history has. In general this is been accompanied by greedy men trying to get all power and wealth for themselves by any means necessary. Seems it's all right on track. Musk and Trump will be remembered as big players in the downfall.
On the other hand, I don't, and here it is.
I feel dumb because I've read this comment 10x now and have no clue what it means
On another read, I didn't word it very well.
I don't go to the Nazi bar, and here it is.
I'm not on Twitter and neither are you, but here we are reading it anyway.
Remember when Trump went to fucking truth social, and instead of never hearing his stupid trash, people just rebroadcasted everything he said in a screenshot instead.
