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.

This is extreme let them eat cake behavior

It's also deeply clueless. The movies and the dinners, the nice cars and the comfortable homes, the very ability to afford raising kids without turning into a burned-out piece of shit are what give you enthusiastic compliance from your staff.

The Musks are extremely racist, in no small part because they have seen how ground down people became under centuries of colonial subjugation and decided "I guess Africans are just like that". Then they want to inflict the same abysmal standard of living on their American peers.
