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.

Yeah... Sinking to the rights level and doing the same shit as them isn't a good play.
He's an ugly moron all on his own. No need to Photoshop or AI anything.
Not a fan of this.
I dont care
Dude is trying to ruin the entire world and you’re like “you shouldn’t call him fat.” Shut the fuck up.
Read my whole ass comment but you didn't understand any of it. Fucking amazing.
Edit: typo
No I understood. But under the circumstances I thought it was fucking stupid and decided to signal to you that I don’t respect you as a person because your shielding of Elon Musk for any reason is a garbage take.
I'm not shielding Elon Musk in any way you dolt. Rub those two functional brain cells you have left and think critically about my first message again.
I'm saying that by stooping to the level of the nutjobs on the right by Photoshoping or using AI to make fake images of someone we hate we are making ourselves look bad unnecessarily. Elon is already a hideous shitbag all on his own. We don't need to do any boosting of his shittiness with fakery.
But I'm sure you have no issue with a political cartoonist drawing an unflattering image of Trump or Musk that hyperbolizes their less flattering aspects.
Art satirizing power is as old as time.
I don't think I need to explain the difference between a clearly satirical drawn image vs a convincing looking photo that has been altered disingenuously.
I'd love to hear whatever pretzel-logic nonsense you can come up with. Let's have it.
Please do
That would make sense and I see what you’re saying, but that has historically not worked ever. This exact argument has been happening with liberals and leftists for longer than I’ve been born, and history has proved this ideology to only help fascism. Understand where I’m coming from so we can meet half way here man.
