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.

Yes, how dare she spend her own money on whatever she wants??? What is the world coming to???
Not her own money, money she got from Bezos in their divorce.
But I still entirely support her usage of it. She seized half of Bezos' money and is using it for good. We all know Bezos would have just kept hoarding it
Edit: my god, do people not say "she took all his money in the divorce" anymore? I was pointing out that she rightfully took a ton of Bezos' money and is now actually using it to do good, instead of it being hoarded by Bezos.
She got it in a divorce that means legally it is her money, she could just cash it out and burn it if she really wanted to lol
On top of that, she was heavily involved in Amazon from its inception.
She earned her money just as much as Bezos did.
so not at all?
nobody earns billions. nobody
I largely agree, especially in the case of Amazon which is notorious for worker rights violations.
That’s why I described it as “as much as Bezos did” rather than in absolute terms.
We are on the same page, I just don't like adding /s.
Amazon did so much bad shit that I would use all that money to make people forget that I was ever connected to it.
Yes, her own money.
That's not money from Bezos, but rather her splitting out her share, that was always hers. Whatever objection you might have, whatever you think is a solid argument for her not actually earning it, has already been crushed flat by legal precedent.
Her own money.
If you get money via legal action, it's your money just as much as any other money.
LOL you must frequent men's rights groups
If you get money from your employer it’s also not yours?
