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.

They literally are blowing up rockets like there is no tomorrow and call it "a process", and then there are guys like you who literally believe that crap.
SpaceX still hasn't been able to come to even 10% of what the Saturn V has done, and they have the knowledge of the Saturn V, they have computational power that is beyond what the Saturn V Engineers could even dream of, they have the newer and better materials, they have the newer and better construction method, they have all the countless advantages that the Saturn V engineers didn't have.
And what do they do? Blow up a launch pad because adding a flame diverter would be too expensive. Blow up a banana over the Indian ocean. Blow up rocket after rocket, and APPLAUDE AND CHEER, like WTF? They set goals of *getting off the launchpad, anything else is extra"
This is what billions of tax payer dollars has given you, the guy who will be in charge of government efficiency, lol
Meanwhile there is blue origin too and oh look, no boom! It. Just. Worked.
