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.

Tesla’s brand image has also been negatively impacted in the area of ethics. He ranked last on character in the Harris Poll and also performed poorly on morality and citizenship. A slew of controversies—from Musk’s reckless Nazi jokes to corporate culture issues and Autopilot incidents—have fueled the perception that Tesla is not just a struggling company, but one fundamentally out of touch with consumer values. The company is making sweeping changes with incentives and the promise of a $25,000 electric car, but regaining trust may require more than just a new model.

It was TWO nazi salutes. He turned around and made sure that everyone in the back could see him doing his nazi salute.

Everyone cheered! All those republicans saw that nazi salute, cheered, saw another nazi salute, and cheered again. At a presidential inauguration.

That defines an entire political party for the rest of your life.
