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.

I really, really think high-speed rail is the wrong direction to take. I'm very much in the "maglev" camp
Maglevs are economically unviable in the absence of room temperature superconductors. So being in the "sci-fi" camp isn't really the flex you think it is.
The Shanghai Maglev train has a top speed of 190 mph and is in active daily use. Please tell me more from your "research" how it is unviable despite already existing in one of the densest metro regions in the world
Read this, maybe you'll learn something:
