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.

Do you realize that Elon Musk, the man holding the most money, has a psychological effect on young, unsocialized boys trying to make their parents proud, and so there is the sociological effect of the alt-right pipeline starting in middle school, which in other words, they let the autistic savant hold shit tons of money while being an Edison figure (he ain't Tesla), and this makes young, unsocialized boys want to branch into STEM, which is the end goal of those letting him hold that much money.
In 2013, sure. In 2023 he's more likely to motivate people to join the Proud Boys. He really should have just shut up and never created a Twitter account.
The Proud Boys are the feds, dummy.
It's a sting operation. They do their fale marching shit to drum up supporters who try to join them and they get caught. This is a good thing. Elon Musk is helping the machine of the police state work as intended.
