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.

As someone who likes the aesthetic of the cybertruck; it annoys me that Elon has made such an ass of himself that it is effectively a non-option for serious people.

It is like the bastard child of a lamborghini countach and a delorean; but in a good way.

Preemptively; taste is subjective and personal. If you don't like the look of it, cool that is for you. I think it looks awesome; but Elon is a fuckup and it is way too expensive.

Even if you like the look and elon was a great guy, you still bought a super expensive way too big car that is absolute garbage.

It is too big for NZ roads, I think it is to expensive, but people buy supercars.... So the value proposition is also subjective.

At for build quality.... Early reports are not that encouraging.

I'll never own one, so it doesn't really effect me.
