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.

I think this is innately a deeply personal issue to him - and he is now going to train the firepower of "the richest person on the planet" on everyone. thats where the politics and ideological alignment may come in.

one hell of a (sad?) real life "super-villain" origin story. the man needs mental help, and derision, but a lot of serious mental help.

The richest man in the world can buy anything except the love and admiration of his own child.

he WAS the richest, but last i saw, his personal net worth went down $200B! the largest loss of net worth ever. Keep it up guys and he'll be in the gutter

He will never ever be in the gutter. I'm sure he has enough liquidity that he will be very wealthy no matter what his stock does, even if he couldn't extract another penny out of his stocks somehow.
