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 might have pulled it off, but he forgot that a lot of his success balanced on people actually BUYING his products, so keeping your personal and company reputation squeaky clean is of the utmost importance.
Instead of maintaining his personal and professional integrity and credibility, he decided to inflate his ego, and throw in with the worst people in the world, and follow a supervillain arc.
Now everybody hates him, and is rooting AGAINST him and his companies. He's lost at least 3/4 of the American market, who would rather take a bus than drive a Tesla, and a lot of people who are left, can't afford a Tesla anyway. The majority of Americans aren't just boycotting Tesla until it shapes up, they want Tesla to fully FAIL, and go out of business.
Tesla will be bankrupt in 3 years, especially after the Dems take over, and fully investigate Musk's behavior during the MAGA period.
