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.

And no one is surprised... And here's the thing. With Musk being in this deep with this many criminal enterprises, it compromises all his work. Tesla, Starlink, Space X, Neuralink, xAI, OpenAI, Boring Company, are all compromised. Doing business with them is doing business with criminals

He literally made a military operation on behalf of Ukraine fail last year. I guess Putin is getting his money's worth.

So... business as usual for conservatives

All "his" work

Bruh, he just bought someone else's work and slapped his name on it

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

No I know. That's most of everything he has ever done. But the fact is is that his net worth is mostly propped up by cronyism and he's been heavily invested in crime and he does own and control these companies, which is the dangerous part

Guess where Boeing got their whistle blower assassins from.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

I don't know... Boeing definitely was the kind of company to have an in-house assassin team and training program... but it is possible that those fell victim to budget cuts, brain drain, and knowledge loss and now they're having to subcontract...

No wonder the government is this deep with them.
