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.

Coming from someone who has never experienced it, nor has anyone in his family history. That is what needs to change in every billionaires life. Make them homeless foa few years and see how they handle it

Sadly they can't experience it. Not really.

I remember awhile ago there was some grifter YouTube channel that was posting "Homeless to $100k" videos.

Like even in their made up scenario the first thing they do is ask a friend for a place to stay and some cash.

Like, that's literally the hardest step and they just act like it's so simple to the point of not even addressing it.

Most of the difference between people that end up in the final stage of homelessness and people that got back on their feet is the support systems that are available to them.

Which is why people that work to end homelessness do a lot of work focusing on keeping people from even getting to that last stage of homelessness in the first place. It's much easier for our society to provide safetynets long before anyone ends up on the street addicted to drugs.

Well, times change as often as minds do, so I like to think anything can happen to anyone any time
