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.

Is this satire?

Not it legitimately happened and Leon tried to play it off as if it was proof of his high skills, he tweeted how he really was just performing a high number of actions per minute and the game kicked him because of it.

From the actual article (and not this weird one OP posted):

https://www.forbes.com/sites/paultassi/2024/12/14/elon-musk-kicked-out-of-path-of-exile-2-for-high-apm-says-its-a-hall-of-famer/

Musk shared a photo of a disconnected screen from Path of Exile 2. The reason given within the photo was “You have been kicked for performing too many actions too fast.”

Musk wrote, “Wasn’t even using a macro lol.” One user replied “hey give us like 10+ active skills and don’t expect us to hit the buttons?!” To which Musk replied, “Seriously… And the penalty for too many clicks/sec is you get executed immediately! I think this will get patched.”

Gotta love the dicksuckers that come rushing in to find a way to blame the game for offending their lord. Of course, to literally anyone with the context and a brain can see he’s full of shit.

“Wasn’t even using a macro lol.”

No one thought you were using one until you said that

Forbes has time for this wank?

This is Forbes contributor. It's a blog, not by Forbes staff.

I just can’t tell anymore what’s real and what’s not…
