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.

There's no doubt it looks almost exactly like a Nazi Salute
But the reality is that he was not actually doing a Nazi Salute. He's just a try-hard that, instead of just waving like a normal person, tried to be super intense and cool and ended up doing the Nazi Salute by accident
It's only a Nazi Salute if you ignore that he does it wrong at the start, doesn't say any Nazi phrase that accompanies the salute, has no reason to be done in that context, and that he literally said he was thanking people from his heart when he did it
But yeah, I guess if we want to ignore all the parts of reality that don't fit the narrative, I guess it is true
Elon can get fucked, but so can people who are more interested in pushing a narrative then acknowledging the truth
Dude, you are likely the single most delusional person I've ever met.
There's video out there showing Hitler and Musk performing the same salute side by side, INCLUDING THE HAND OVER THE FUCKING HEART!
It was a Nazi salute. Stop fluffing the trillionaire already!
The video is out there of him literally saying he's thanking people from his heart
Does it look like a Nazi Salute, absolutely. Was he actually going, "Heil Hitler"? No.
Elon can get fucked. But also, so can people who spread misinformation
