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.

He knows it and he did it intentionally, but the people laughing at him are his imagination. He's projected these thoughts onto them because he feels self-conscious, nobody said a word to him. It's just as likely the woman was laughing because she's on the phone, or the man was smirking at something on a podcast he's got playing.

Edit: Will you people stop telling me you laugh at Cybertrucks. I don't care, that's not the point.

As a counter-point, I've seen Cybertrucks out in the wild on at least 3 occasions now and each time I thought to myself, "Look at this fucking idiot."

One time someone else was in the car with me when we passed a Cybertruck and he did point and laugh at it.

I've pointed and laughed at every Cybertuck I've seen for the reasons the guy referenced in the post thinks. I'm full-on laughing at the people who plopped down $100k for those 4-year-old's-drawing-of-a-fucking-Halo-Warthog pieces of shit. Bullying serves a social function and these dumbasses are in need of it.
