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.

President Biden stood at a White House podium & stated that Elon Musk “is worth being looked at.”

When asked "How?", President Biden responded “There’s a lot of ways.”

There certainly are. The DOJ, FAA, FTC, NLRB, SDNY, & FWS have all taken action.

The FCC now joins them.

Maye Musk @mayemusk -- Dec 13, 2023 · 15:40 PM UTC

I am the mother of @elonmusk His goal is to make this world a better place. @POTUS wants to stop him. Have you any idea how furious I am? People in other countries are proud of Elon and do not understand the US President’s motive. Please tell me how I should answer them.

People in other countries are proud of Elon

Which people? What countries? Proud of him for what, exactly?

I'm sure Russia appreciates how he's interfered with the defence of Ukraine.

China too, sadly.

Have you any idea how furious I am?

No. Nor do I care.

I know I've been off Twitter for a while (too lazy to switch to a working Nitter instance), but Jesus, that thread of replies is a shitshow.

Just imagine, Elon’s mom is probably complaining to him about all the mean things people said to her that shouldn’t be allowed.

Didn't he already get caught using sock puppet accounts? How confident are we that it was actually written by her? Because it sounds exactly like Elon, and nothing like any mother I've ever met talking about her child.

[–] mateomaui@reddthat.com 1 points 1 year ago

Pretty sure it’s really her. Her comments sounding like him and vice versa wouldn’t be that unusual. Not expected, but not unusual.
