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.

How the language of sensitivity can be weaponized, Ex. A:
Cut the crap, applicability of language has nothing to do with whether you like Elon. Having a condition is not some privilege given only to worthy, while the rest are considered just jerks.
I'm so fucking tired of locals treating it as such - if they don't like a person, then they against common sense exclude that person of any group or trait that can be called oppressed or disadvantages.
You cut the crap. We don't know what he has, because there's no reason to take him at his word about anything; he's a proven liar. Moreover, sensitivity about mental health issues is part of the social contract - a contract which any billionaire is almost by definition in breach of.
Typical for ASD too, you learn to lie to people who won't accept the truth, to save your energy.
Also his behavior is pretty normal for an ASD person, in public appearances and sore spots of personality too, I don't think there's any reason to doubt that part.
Not just them.
You sound like someone who thinks their diagnosis is a "get away with shitty behaviour" ticket. Bye for now.
No, I think some behavior is not shitty, just some people are trying to push their opinion it is upon others. Go fuck yourself, have a nice day
