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.

You oughta call this community CravingMoreMuskSpam now that you’re making your own content
This just in. Psychopath trying to control reality wants to control the imagination as well.
"self-made"
Rational people: it's not fun if it's unbalanced
MAGAts and billionaires: it's not fun if I don't win
I'm GLAD we don't Tax him! He OBVIOUSLY wouldn't be able to Afford it! Anyways that Single Mom of 3 on Welfare is a LEECH!
I wasn't buying WoTC/Hasbro before. So nothing is going to change for me.
Remember folks, sharing is caring when it comes to DnD. Also, support indie TTRPGs. You'll find amazing different mechanics and stories to explore!
I'm convinced he'd actually really call them "le epic die"
"I wish to buy Hasbro."
roll for int
"Seriously? How is this an int check?"
I'm not the DM, I'm just a court Judge...
I'm sure there is an.endless supply of sycophants willing to lick his boots and play D&D with him. He doesn't need friends.
Rocks fall, but curiously they only crush one party member.
Please tell me even he isn't at reach enough to buy Hasbro
Hasbro's market cap is around nine billion dollars, Musk's net worth is around three hundred and forty five billion dollars.
Unfortunately, he could probably buy Hasbro with whatever he finds down the back of the couch.
Or just do what rich people always do and take out a loan to buy it with other peoples money. When you have that much wealth, taking a loan is never an issue. That is why the notion that some rich person can't pay more taxes or whatever because all their money is "invested" is completely void.
Its made of emerald.
Please no.
The best part of TTRPGs is WOTC already fired the shot over the bow with its licensing scandal. So all the third party creators have scrubbed WOTC specific stuff from their materials and are now working on system agnostic adventures that can run in Pathfinder, D&D, 13th Age, or Tales of the Valiant.
And at the end of the day, even if he buys every single company, you don't have to keep buying the products. Telling a story with dice at a table is free, except for the cost of a pen, paper, and a dice set.
Yup. Hasbro-WotC has already dragged their name in the mud, and they're really busy digging their own grave with the recent push for digital-first/virtual-tabletops-first stuff and micro(macro)transactions. Meanwhile, they forgot that tabletop RPG rules have always been flexible and homebrewy (and the old OGL reflected that ethos perfectly), and you can't hyper-monetise them the same way as video games.
They're making the same mistakes TSR did. (Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it, yadda yadda yadda.) Except in TSR's case, they got bought by WotC who pulled an extremely community-supportive, business-ecosystem-building move by introducing OGL. Even if Elon bought out WotC I doubt he is actually going to be interested in fixing whatever's actually ailing them right now, dude's too busy fighting woke demons than actually doing sound business/pro-community moves.
These were my first thoughts. Also, if anyone could put the nail in a dying brand's coffin, it is certainly elon. "Oh, failing company, I'll buy it and accelerate it's demise!". The second he buys it, the majority of DND players will pull the trigger on going to any other game, as most almost did with the scandal, and then MAGAs will pour into "this new game that Elon invented that makes libs mad".
I have no doubt he would do something absolutely idiotic with it. Like making gender roles part of the game documents.
Oh he’s absolutely the type to make the rules give female characters -STR (possibly -INT), and +CHA (possibly +DEX) and inverse for male characters. As well as all sorts of dewokification
This one is brilliant
i want that community note to be real
This is the real reason he keeps spawning children
Considering how lonely rich people are and how much of an obvious dick he is: it's probably true.
Technically it'd be a plus 20 (plus a hundred? A million?) bonus. These guys fail all the time, they just can't fail hard enough for it to matter.
musk is actually a brony.
