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.

There are still people who will claim that this isn't a Hitler salute.

Hitler disagrees.

This is the first time I see the actual footage of his nazi salute... Must say I expected it cringe, but not this cringe.

In the full clip he does it twice. I think this gif is the first salute, then he turns to his left and does it again.

If you’ve never seen the full clip and think “oh people are taking this out of context” give it a watch (it’s in the first 20 seconds of this news report https://youtu.be/48gTx8MpRmI

Oh no! I've always had ZERO doubts he did and meant it, but thank you for the source.

The funniest thing to me is you can see how psyched he is to do this which is so mega cringe it hurts.

It’s like you can almost hear the little edge lord devil on his shoulder going “do it Elon, do the Nazi salute. Kekekek do it again”

He is such a sad man, if he weren’t such a 5 alarm dumpster fire of a human being I would feel sad for him

Carbon atom after millions of years of existence and countless light-years of travelling, having ended up as part of Elon Musk's body:
