Enough Musk Spam

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.

Even the oldskool robber barons were never this brazen. Elon dismantling USAID was quite literally the richest man in the world robbing the poorest people on earth. Taking food out of the mouths of starving babies.

You couldn't write a fictional villain like this because your editor would deem it unrealistic or over the top.

But here we are.

Yes. I thought we were doing McKinley 2.0: all subsidies to to rich, none to the working class (so no middle class formation), more homeless, more tariffs, more cost.

That and an end to the US Constitution.
