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.

at least he was born in South Africa so he can't run for president.
The Supreme Court has made it clear that only congress can enforce who can or can't run for president. Not even the states can choose who can run. So, if he wants to run for president and either the house or senate refuse to stop him... whelp, nothing that can be done about it.
"The Supreme Court has made it clear that only congress can enforce who...", while already fulfilling the Constitutional requirements to run for office, "...can or can’t run for president"
Except trump doesn't fulfill the Constitutional requirements for office, that's why Colorado wasn't going to put him on the ballot.
*also, not except.
the conservative SC can choose to interpret incorrectly what "office" legally means, but "natural-born citizen" has less legal wiggle room with respect to citizens not naturally born in the US vying for presidential candidacy.
