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.

Yep so I’m guessing no one has offered rich incentives to relocate then.

[–] [email protected] 39 points 1 year ago

Yeah, he's fishing.

[–] [email protected] 84 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So he just learned he can't get out of his lease huh?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Not like he was paying rent anyway.

[–] [email protected] 51 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Has he hired Trump to ghost-write his tweets?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (6 children)

Are they still "tweets"? (Seriously, I'm kinda out of the loop)

[–] abraham_linksys 36 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've decided I don't give a fuck and will continue calling it Twitter. It's what Musk wouldn't want, we should honor that

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I like the irony of deadnaming the company of a transphobe.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Holy fuck I didn't know Elon is that big of a bigot, he keeps getting worse every time

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

One of his children cut off all ties with him because of that very reason. Imagine being such a cunt that being the richest person on earth can't compensate for it.

[–] [email protected] -3 points 1 year ago

If other people had the money he has, they'd go to school and learn so many things. Elon has all the money and just learns nothing. What a waste of space.

Like "yeet" only edgier.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

yes because "X's" sound fuckin stupid and musk doesn't get to change popular terminology over his hardon for 'the cool letter'

“In today’s news, Elon Musk’s fetid Xcretions have caused sponsors to flee en masse.“

It certainly seems like a more accurate term.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That does sound the xperience of X.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Just "posts" now. Nice and sterile.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But it still says "retweets" in the posted image

They are called tens now.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I say we call them porns. It's X after all. Elon porned all over the place.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I'll take 'Images I Didn't Need' for 500, Trebek.

Who would rent to him? He doesn't pay...

Of course he's staying put. He's just trying to reframe the fact he's a centabillionaire who doesn't pay bills.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 1 year ago

All I see here is "due to circumstances I created we cannot move anywhere, no one wants us".

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago

They probably cant move anywhere reasonably anyway considering they did not pay rent for atleast some time. Who would rent out office spaces to an unreliable company like this?

So this just seems like typical Elon posturing

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

Didn't he crap over SF and then used that as a reason to not pay rent?

I mean, he was right about the area but not good enough to get out of paying rent.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Did you see how annoyingly bright that new, non-permitted sign they installed on the roof is? SF needs to use some frozen paintballs on it to show appreciation.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Those who live in glass doom spirals shouldn't throw stones.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We could club together and offer him a few quid to just *uckoff.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I'd chip in a couplenof bucks to help fund a one way trip to the moon for him. As long as little money as possible is spent on radios we should be ok.
