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.

You’ve got a CEO who has a net worth of $200 billion and is demanding more massive bonuses to himself and at the same time he’s killing jobs.
I can’t believe there’s people that want to invest in companies that behave this way.
As if it weren't bad enough that people choose to invest in such companies, you have large numbers of people convinced that Musk is tech Jesus, come to save the world from all its problems with his superior intellect.
His fanboys see him as Tony Stark but everyone else is waking up to the fact that he's not even a Justin Hammer.
At least Justin Hammer had charisma.
I can't see Justin Hammer being distracted into buying a social media company for $44 billion either.
'distracted'? You mean hoisted by his own petard?
He's also a washed out druggie.
Reminder: The board of Directors at Tesla also want him to get paid, for some stupid reason.
Yes if it wasn't clear enough yet, the "Board" of Tesla are less than worthless. The entire enterprise is going to go up in flames because of this complete idiot. And the nominal group of people who's only purpose is to prevent that are cheering him on.
The “board” is almost entirely made up of Musk’s pawns. Many of them even share his last name.
