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.

Oh no, it was intentional on the part of the SA and foreign backers. Elon is the scape goat. They bought it for the man-sized rich toddler and let nature take its course. Can you think of someone less reliable to put in charge of Twitter to cause it to crash and burn?
Kanye West and Donald Trump were both too busy.
But if twitter dies something takes it's place, be it threads or the fediverse. What a waste of 44 billion
The fediverse is very fragmented and threads isn't taking off
because of federation, fragmentation isn't a thing
I don't think many fediverse users want to repeat the same mistakes of X/Twitter.
I mean, the shareholders of all of his other companies let him stick around. Are the shareholders of Tesla in on some plan to watch him decimate the value of their investments? At best, they're being held hostage by the impact of him throwing a fit and liquidating his massive personal holdings.
I think the market is just trying to figure out how divorce him knowing how much damage he could do on his way out
The Muskovite purchasing Xitter ("X" being "sh" like in Chinese "xiao") took Xitter private. It's not "the market," it's "a handful of private investors." Not trying to play semantic games but Xitter's investors are not representative of an open market.
