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.

This is something very common in stocks. In a bear market it is called a "dead cat bounce". Most probably it will go back to keep falling in a few days, if not tomorrow, unless the trend changes which would be very surprising to me.

it is called a "dead cat bounce".

Because everything will bounce if you slam it down hard enough. Not the nicest term though

At some point it becomes more of a splatter tho, depending on momentum.

I don't think this 'term' exists, but I hereby propose we call a downward, stairstep series of dead, splattered cat bounces, a 'bear feast'.
