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.

Musk was never part of PayPal, no matter how much his bots try to shill that idea. Company that invented PayPal merged with company Musk was part of, company he was booted out from before the merger. He never had anything to do with PayPal. They later made PayPal and sold it to eBay and Musk has stocks, that's it. They succeeded in spite of him. Just like he lies about founding Tesla, he did the same thing with PayPal and Neuralink, etc. That's what Musk and muskrats do, gaslight.
