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.

“Xitter,” pronounced “Shitter”

Xitter ! love it, now lexicon

Usage: Can't wait to watch Xitter (pronounced Zit - ter) pop after Musk wrecks the train.

I’ve always read X as a “sh” adjacent sound so Xitter basically reads like “shitter” to me.

Haha. Nah, it’s because of Chinese.

[–] anguo@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

So it's probably more specific to "xi", and not x by itself ;)

[–] PlasmaDistortion@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Shitter is probably the best name for it I have heard so far.

Musk looks more and more unhinged in each successive pic i see of him. Countdown to OD?

[–] VelvetStorm@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Christ we can only hope.

He is turning himself into a comical evil villain. Next he’ll be explicitly his evil plan to 007.

It's as if he's censoring them.

[–] BillyTheSkidMark@lemm.ee 7 points 2 years ago

Nooo, he wouldn't do that! He's a free speech absolutist remember?

Yikes, that thumbnail. Musk is literally a neckbeard now? He must be leaning into it.
