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.

If the AR is for the AR-15, then you're mistaken on the meaning. That doesn't stand for assault rifle. It's for Armalite, the original developer of the gun.
Armalite Rifle Assault Rifle is a bit clumsy. But people get so intensely hung up on the jargon because they're angry the conversation is even happening.
Guy with a locker full of guns shits the bed when his son goes on a murder spree, and then we all get an earful about how we don't know enough about guns to understand why he was a reckless owner.
AR is just for Armalite, not Armalite rifle. Anyway, ywa it doesn't matter.
