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.

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.

He's not just narcissistic, he's also autistic.
I'm autistic. What's your point?
Politicising mental disorders is the same bullshit no matter which disorder. Musk is a person, his autism and narcissism have nothing to do with his political choices.
His narcissism most certainly has to do with his political choices, especially since it seems his narcissism is driving him to do stupider and more damaging actions. Also I doubt he is autistic dude was looking for an excuse for being unfunny and about as charismatic as a rotting opposum corpse cooking on the side of the road, also the afformentioned uncontrolled narcissism and long history of lying makes anything he claims suspect.
I doubt he has narcissism as much as you doubt he has autism. He doesn't have a diagnosis. It's just rumours. That's not a good enough basis to be ableist. You're forming stereotypes about narcissism based on a rumour based on stereotypes. It's fucking xkcd citogenesis. You're inventing your own truth whole cloth.
I'm addressing the trait of narcissism not the mental illness of narcissistic personality disorder. Two different things ones a mental illness and the other is being a maladaptive bitch who thinks they're the center of the universe and everyone else is an NPC, I'll give you that musk is definitely mentally fucked by multiple metrics but it ain't ableist to point out that his mental issues are contributing to his political spiral. Just like how my mother's abuse was made worse by her bipolar swings Musks Nazi tendencies were caused by his maladaptions and accelerated by his addiction.
Analysis requires acknowledgement of all factors and guess what to analyze Musk you have to factor in his mental instability. Mental illness often times often times works as an acceleratent for negative tendencies I know this from personal experience, both with my mother and my own issues since PTSD and autism is a right volatile mix.
Regardless I don't feel like there's any point in being not ableist to Musk, it'd probably piss him off. Treat him like the depressed little shit stain he is, maybe we will get lucky and he'll decide to air out his skull with a 12 gauge slug.
You're encouraging other people to hate people with NPD.
No, as I said previously Musk has the personality of being narcissistic that much is obvious him having NPD or not is irrelevant. One of the facts of having a mental illness is working with it and overcoming the worst elements to the best of ones abilities. Regardless of if Musk has NPD he most certainly is letting his other more obvious issues such as his overflowing ego, addictive personality, and maladaptive tendencies control him hell id even say he is going out of his way to wallow in it.
Perhaps I am encouraging folks to harass one very specific person who may have NPD, but frankly speaking Musk deserves to be degloved and rolled around in salt like the worst meat stick. Sorry but I ain't seeing your point of view on this one.
Ah, so you think it's fine to attack someone for having disordered traits if they're not diagnosable. You think there's no way that can backfire and harm disabled people.
Alright, don't be a coward, then. Attack Musk for having autistic traits. You don't think he's got a diagnosis, so it should be fine under your ethics. Do that, or explain how demonising traits still harms disabled people.
Sure though don't blame me if I'm a shit at it, just woke up so actual proper insult ain't really on the table. Ya know what ain't gonna try formulating insults I'm just gonna bitch like an asshole, far easier doesn't require any wit.
So there's the fact he is weirdly obsessed with the letter X for some gods forsaken reason, you'd think he was a 6 year old who just watched a documentary on Crusader cryptology and internal symbolism. There's also his retarded obsession with old school sci-fi and cyberpunk more specifically but then again all these rich cunts seem to have that type of obsession with old literature. Also who the fuck pulls from Heinlein and goes with fucken grok? Seriously there's far better Heinlein references ya man child.
Ok, best I can pull off. Like I said literally just woke up and am sitting in a hot room with mild dehydration cause I drool and sweat at the same time great combo that one.
Anyways I think attacking Musk for anything and everything is valid mostly because he is infact a Nazi. He could get domed by a fucking piece of meteorite and I'd call him a fuck up for it, maybe blame his plastic surgery for his death or something IDFK. Dudes so dysfunctional that if ya walked around in eggshells with him he would be rather hard to attack for his personality traits, and I am infact an asshole so I want to attack him over his dumbass traits.
Thanks. I've reported you for using the R slur. Have a nice day.
Aight, like I give a damn about being reported woopty fucken doo.
