Enough Musk Spam
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.

He killed his Dem fans by going MAGA. Then, killed MAGA fans going against their orange god. All-around idiot that got lucky investments with daddy's money.
Jump in one of those exploding rockets, Elon. It surely won't blow this time.
friendly reminder that Eloser Muskrat got over 8 million USD in DAILY subsidies from the government, while he swore to hold a chainsaw to "democracy" to "cut costs"
I mean, him Titan CEO'ing himself on the way to Mars as a showcase that his tech is safe, is well within plausibility
He could do that today by showing off how reliable the collision detection and braking systems are on his Cybertruck.
Don't give me hope!
Solid chance he does the same thing in one of his robotaxis
He isn't taking his own robo taxis.
Does he even drive a tesla?
He does. He required their charging port to be where they are due to the layout of his garage at the time when they designed the Model S
I doubt he would drive his own teslas
I don't know, the stream where his entire goal was to prove how good starlink was for gaming where he immediately blamed all his deaths on poor connection quality, sort of implies he has trouble putting his products before his ego.
And while he is an expert at deluding himself, I think we have already passed the point where even he could be convinced his rockets were safe.
No way dude goes himself. No way.
He not only did what you describe, but by buying Twitter, he intentionally worked to polarize the entire political base into neat "pro-Trump" and "anti-Trump" camps. Then he finished systematically burning his bridges with both. Amazing work all around.
Glad the drugs made him unpredictable. Unlike thiel and bezoa he can't help but to be an attention whore.
All he has now is hopefully getting Russian fans
