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.

Hang on, ~~this guy~~ the AP seriously took a picture where there is no injury to his ear? What was all the blood then? This one needs independent corroboration.

It was probably caused when like eight huge guys shoved him to the ground.

The guy's nearly 80. Shit gets injured easily when you're old.

Real bullets were fired for sure, but I don't think they actually came within a centimetre of preserving democracy. We're not that unlucky.

If you’d actually watched the videos you’d have seen blood on the way to the ground; something definitely hit his ear.

Not to be conspiratorial but I watched that video back on super slow speed zoomed in and when he puts his hand up to his ear it comes back with no blood on it.

Maybe I'm missing it. I have head injuries and they bleed a lot very quickly.
