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.

Why does his naming conventions feel like he's populating a Warhammer 40k fanfic? At first I was like "Well Vivian sounds normal" and then I remembered that she chose that name and her dead name (which fucking gross Elon posted) definitely fits the 40k paradigm.

I would bet that the names he chose, at least the ones that aren't "X" in some way (Xavier, Exa, X AE whatever) are probably white supremacist adjacent in some way, "Saxon" being an obvious one.

X could still be white Supremacy-esque. X in ASCII tables is 88 and 88 is a NeoNazi dogwhistle.

With anyone else it could have been a coincidence, but with fucking Elon...

"Saxon" also has an x in it. "Kai" is pronounced like the Greek letter chi (X). Dude's obsessed.

Sigh, I should have guessed.

I wonder if he'd hate Vivian less if she'd chosen a name like Xena or Roxanne.

Maybe more, since that's HIS letter!

He paid good money for that letter, how dare anybody else use his letter. We should collectively boycott that letter!

Boycotting anything that's associated with him in any way works for me.
