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 did it once, turned around and did it again - incredibly intentional.
It is a Nazi salute, stop trying to pretend otherwise. You're trying to rationalize it because you can't accept that Musk is a Nazi.
Instead of defending this trash human being who's only wealthy through inheritance and luck in making some good bets with his capital (gained from his family exploitation in South Africa during apartheid). He's not a fucking genius, he's not a visionary, he's an asshole who has way too much money and a disgusting philosophy on life.
You're not his friend. He is not your friend. He is the enemy.
There were people both, in front, and behind him. He was thanking the people in the audience for supporting Trump; so yeah, he waved to all of the people in the audience, including those behind him
It's not an "All-or-nothing" deal in life. I can both, dislike Elon, but also not be OK with spreading misinformation. The fact that you see it as a, "you always go with the anti-Elon narrative, even if it's false or else..." kind of lets me know everything I need to know about you. If the story was, "Elon ate a baby on stage", even though you know that's not true, you'd still push the lie because to you, if you speak up and say, "that's not true", you're a bad person
Your morals are fucked
Not me. I don't need to lie. Elon can get fucked but I'll let his trash behavior speaks honestly for itself
Did he give a stupid fucking wave that looks like the Nazi Salute? Absolutely. Was he actually standing on stage Heil Hitler? No.
Lol the irony.
You and me both. That's why I wrote what I did. Because you're spreading misinformation.
Oh, my bad, so then Elon wasn't thanking the audience, I'm lying about that?
Oh, he was? He literally said that huh? hm...
Well, he didn't thank them from his heart. Obviously that's bullshit right?
Oh, he did? Like he literally said he was doing exactly that? Straight up, "from my heart"?
Well he didn't grab his heart or anything, he just did the salute
Oh, he did grab his heart? Like, he literally flat palms his chest and literally grips his shirt over his heart?
Hm... well, this happened at place where people do Nazi Salutes right? Like in secret or at a white power rally or something?
No? It happened in a public place where you almost certainly wouldn't publicly do this?
oh...
I can't tell if you're a LLM bot, masterful troll and/or just mentally challenged.
lol, "you're a bot", always the words of someone who's doing well in a debate
This isn't a debate, you're just factually, clearly, wrong.
But it's whatever, you know what you're doing.
Oh, my bad, so then Elon wasn’t thanking the audience, I’m lying about that?
Oh, he was? He literally said that huh? hm…
Well, he didn’t thank them from his heart. Obviously that’s bullshit right?

oh…
That's how you sound right now, I'm not replying anymore especially since I think you're more than likely a bot (or if you're not a bot you're a moron or a troll) so yeah ... But like what the hell kind of logic are you even on about.
No, he definitely wrecked his car; the question is if he did it on purpose
He did not purposely wreck his car. How do I know?
Well, for starters, it just doesn't make any sense to wreck your car in this scenario. He's at a car meetup, not a demolition derby.
He also said, "watch me do a doughnut". Why would he say that? I mean, if all he was going to do was purposely wreck his car why wouldn't he just straight up say, "watch me wreck my car"? If he wrecked his car on purpose he's clearly not shy about wrecking his car on a public stage but suddenly he's too shy to actually say "watch me wreck my car"? He lied about what he was doing?
Then we see him grab the wheel and crank it hard to the left, exactly like you would do if you were doing a doughnut and exactly what he said he was going to do.
It's just, then he hit a barrier, flipped his car over, and came to abrupt halt.
So, yes, he definitely wrecked his car. But did he deliberately wreck his car? No.
