Enough Musk Spam

2204 readers
109 users here now

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.

amazing that you haven’t just blocked it yet and solved your own problem

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't like blocking communities, but this is the first one I blocked because Jesus christ you guys are just as obsessed as his fan boys

[–] mateomaui@reddthat.com 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So you really are the dumb kind of person who complains needlessly about something even though he could solve his own issue at any time. Thanks for confirming, good riddance to you, your complaint has been noted.

And you're the exact kind of person I would expect to see on this sub.

[–] mateomaui@reddthat.com 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Honestly, the dumbest logic:

whiners: “we don’t like seeing all these musk posts in technology, etc, could you please make a separate community for it so we don’t have to see it?”

community: “sure, no problem, that’s reasonable”

whiners: “I can still see all these musk posts because I don’t want to block communities, and I’m going to come in here and complain until maybe all of you just stop”

community: “lol, fuck off, idiot”

Still better logic than.

"We hate Elon Musk and how much he's spammed, let's make a community called 'enough Musk spam' where literally all we do is spam Elon Musk news!!"

Like come one, you HAVE to understand how stupid that is right?

No, it’s actually stupid that you’re unable to understand that the community is named after the common complaint phrase when elon-related material was posted everywhere else… “enough of this musk spam.”

It was named “enoughmuskspam” in honor of that phrase so you and every other ignorant twit might get the obvious clue that this is the community you want to block to avoid it.

It’s not that deep, yet you still don’t get it. That’s pretty sad on your account, dude.

Still here?

Look, this whole community was created at the request of you whiners so that it could be easily filtered out by all of you, so you don’t have to see it.

But instead, you just keep bitching about it because for some reason you prefer to not block a community that you just consider to be spam, even though it was made to be blocked by you.

And somehow you think you’ll successfully shame anyone in here?

You’re a moron. Cry harder.

I know guys like you struggle to read, but I literally already said I blocked the community already, so you're sitting your pants over literally nothing.

And somehow you think you’ll successfully shame anyone in here?

Lmao, don't worry no one is under the illusion you Musk obsessives have any sense of shame.

Also dude, look at how upset you're getting over a comment on lemmy, get a grip.

Says the dude who replied back in the first place and is still whining because he was offended that two different people told him to take care of his own problem and just block the community if he had an issue with it. You have no high ground here. If you’re actually done with this, just stfu and be done with it.

It’s amusing that you’re commenting on others’ ability to read when you can’t even figure out why the community is named what it is, even after being given pretty clear context for it.
