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 must have checked his list of criminal dealings, saw that Musk was on it, and decided to correct it.

Sauce please? Because that is fucking amazing!

[–] arc@lemm.ee 52 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

That must count as the most financially ruinous tweet ever. Serves Elon right for being a total prick.

[–] TehWorld@lemmy.world 17 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Wasn’t president Musk’s announcement that he was going to BUY twitter a tweet? Seeing as it’s worth fuck-all now that’s in the running.

[–] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 3 points 53 minutes ago (1 children)

Yeah though his total demolition of the company wasn’t done by that tweet. He had to keep making bad decisions for that!

[–] Pronell@lemmy.world 2 points 45 minutes ago

Buying the company was the decision to take over the communications channel by dictators worldwide. It wasn't an accident and he doesn't care about the value of shitter in the long term.

Slim might be one of the coolest rich guys around. He put up a museum in Mexico city and it's free. For everyone, all the time.

Elon musk must have read Art of the deal recently, it’s obvious in his recent business dealings

[–] And009@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 9 minutes ago

It's a badly translated Art of War

[–] cheers_queers@lemm.ee 9 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

this is what happens when you run a government the way you're used to running the monopoly you own. "hardball" doesn't work on the global stage.

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 1 points 27 minutes ago

Or when courts immediately reinstate the people his cuck-ass tried to fire.

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 10 points 3 hours ago

More like Art of Seduction. Dude is going around being megadouche, negging people and trying to make up for it with cheesy magic tricks.

[–] pinheadednightmare@lemm.ee 16 points 4 hours ago

It’s sad how happy this makes me…. Oh well.

I don't have a business degree, so can someone help me understand if this is how you win at stonks?

[–] TheLowestStone@lemmy.world 19 points 4 hours ago

I can but first I'm going to need you to wire me $150 usd.

[–] NegativeLookBehind@lemmy.world 229 points 8 hours ago (18 children)

Really glad to see Elon Musk getting absolutely fucked. Let's have more of that.

[–] reiterationstation@lemm.ee 19 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

It’s America getting fucked, not him.

Keep in mind he might be working for them doing this on purpose to us.

We just know he doesn’t care about America.

[–] pedz@lemmy.ca 20 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Might? Elon Musk has been in regular contact with Putin for two years

However, he's obviously destroying the US government and bureaucracy right now, but I don't think he's destroying his own businesses on purpose. He's just dumb.

[–] crank0271@lemmy.world 109 points 8 hours ago (4 children)

Let's be clear: he's the one fucking himself

[–] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 hour ago

It's a start.

[–] Jumpingspiderman@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago

I find it hard to imagine how someone like Musk with infinite tiny-dick energy could fuck anything. Let alone himself.

[–] truthfultemporarily@feddit.org 16 points 6 hours ago

Even more beautiful.

That's called "voting with your wallet". Everyone should do that! Here in Europe we tanked Tesla sales. Rich and poor - everyone can do what's right.

[–] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 62 points 7 hours ago (10 children)

Not everyone's wallet has that kind of pull.

[–] OnASnowyEvening@lemmy.world 23 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Here's the thing... there's more of us than there are of them. That's why they're so desperate to keep our collective attention elsewhere and to cause division or people might recognize just how strong they could be collectively.

Even collectively we might not have billions of dollars, but it doesn't take billions to crater a company or an industry. Just takes not paying into the system; it'll collapse on its own.

I get you can't boycott everything because you need food and water to survive, but people aren't helpless.

[–] Jumpingspiderman@lemmy.world 4 points 3 hours ago

Luigi! This would get me banned on Reddit.

Musk will most likely blame it on South African apartheid and him being discriminated against.

Keep it up world. Bankrupt Musk. Let’s make the world’s richest man, the poorest. Rob him of absolutely everything.
