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.

Good lord, reading some of the comments on this article made me lose braincells. Musk sure is owning the marxist libs with these fucking leaky refrigerators on wheels.

Idk, something just irks the hell out of me when people are like "50% battery is actually good bro, it's the perfect storage level for lithium bro". It's not in storage anymore, it's being delivered.

ICE cars are shipped with a quarter tank or less, but they are never delivered without close to a full tank. The fact that the Tesla dealer didn't spend the $1 of electricity or the half hour washing it down is just plain rude. And yet, people are still defending this shit as if being abused by big daddy musk is their life's greatest goal. Absolutely mind boggling.

It’s almost like Tesla supporters are mentally deficient or something.

Narcissism. They don't want the embarrassment of being wrong.
