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.

“How unpopular is he? How low can you go?” Enten said, explaining that in 2017, Musk’s favorability rating was plus 24 points and now it’s at minus 19.

“Whoa, he fell through the floor,” Enten said. “Among Democrats, the fall was even more dramatic. We’re talking about going from plus-35 points on net favorability rating (that is quite a popular guy among Democrats) but get this – now down to minus-91 points. You can’t really go lower than that. I guess you could go down to minus100 points, but he became political kryptonite.”

I hate him so much that I'm telling everyone I can to boycott Tesla, sell your Tesla stocks and boycott Twitter.

Elon Musk recently declared he will be spending “a lot less” money on politics going forward. He told Bloomberg, “I think I’ve done enough” and that he does not “currently see a reason” to continue spending money in the political arena.

I have little hope that the damage down by this man will be rectified any time soon.

It's going to take a long, long time. Again.
