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.

I’ve worked with big companies during big mergers. The higher ups don’t see a sinking ship. They see money and opportunity, regardless of how far from reality that really is. Maybe you and I consider that irrational, but with these people, most of their actions are not driven by rationale.

I guess, but as the article says, even her colleagues are begging her to leave Twitter and she isn't listening. I don't know why people find it so hard to believe that she's yet another Musk sycophant. Especially since she's MAGA.

i don’t think anyone finds it hard to believe, just that there could be multiple justifications… assumptions are never good, and pointing out that $6m/y is a pretty good alternative justification

… also, it could easily be both
