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.

But they did order it after seeing what it would look like. Back then, I was still pretty excited about Tesla, right up until that thing showed up on stage. You could see it on everyones faces at the event, "is this actually what they went with? Some kind of prank? Is there still time for this to get a major overhaul, or is it locked in?" Basically, everyone had the same facial expression as they would have if the big reveal was that a toilet was brought on stage and Elon was about to poop in front of them. Can argue, he kinda did.
