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.

Fucking called her Xavier, I would change that even if I wasn't trans

wait till you hear about X Æ A-12

[–] Muffi@programming.dev 42 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Using an Æ without being able to pronounce it is both offensive and hilarious to me as a Dænish person

[–] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 1 week ago (4 children)

What's the correct pronunciation in danish?

[–] crapwittyname@lemm.ee 25 points 1 week ago

Nice try, Elon.

[–] GladiusB@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Isn't it "ah" like Ænema?

[–] Nounka@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I saw it explained as x ash a 12... So ae is ash i guess

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

According to Wikipedia there are 4 pronunciations in Norwegian alone, none of which are "ash".

I initially thought it was pretty much like ä, but apparently that's only one of the possible pronunciations.

Poor kid... Xasha 12 was at least a bit off a name.

[–] Schadrach@lemmy.sdf.org 12 points 1 week ago

Based on their relationship post-Luigi, I'm pretty sure you pronounce X Æ A-12 as "Kevlar".

Now daddy is going to stand in front of an open window, so it's time for a piggyback ride little Kevlar!

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago

Yeah it's certainly easier to pronounce than Xäa12 would be. But I mean if the muskmelon is just picking pronunciations he likes for letters, it can be absolutely anything. Maybe it's actually Shanty

[–] Nangijala 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He can't even pronounce Æ.

He probably thinks it’s pronounced like this:

That legitimately brightened my day a little, thank you. Made me smile
