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.

AFAIK, the name is from back when Reddit still had a positive view of the guy. The subreddit was created as a counter to all the posts painting him in a good light. Nowadays I don't see the point of this community anymore though.

Yes exactly. I don’t know if they realise what they have become .

….Or stay and make my point. It’s a beautiful system.

You've already made your point. Do you think repeating it will help? Otherwise, it seems like you can go ahead and block the community and move on.

Unfortunately for you, your point is incorrect.
