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.

Huh. This is what the consequences of my actions taste like.

That's what Kaptain Ketamine should be saying, but won't.

The Pontiac Aztec was a flop vehicle. However comparing historical sales numbers side by side with present day Cybertruck sales, it looks like Aztec sold more for the same amount of time.

Aztec lifetime sales:

And that's in the US! AFAIK they still aren't allowed for sale in the EU. Because they're not safe enough. There's maybe a dozen people who jumped through all the hoops required to legally get one on the road, and most of them rent them out as props.

and most of them rent them out as props.

That's pretty much all it's good for.

In the entire first quarter of 2025, Tesla has managed to sell just 7,100 Cybertrucks

That is VERY impressive!!
They actually managed to sell just over 5% of their 125000 target for 1 quarter.
Take THAT haters. Musk is a genius. 🤣🤣🤣
