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.

You don’t just become bigoted against queer people.

im pretty sure you can. It's not like you're born with the gene that makes you hate gay people or something. There was that recent couple that came out denouncing the republican party due to their trans kid. queer people were once completely socially unacceptable, now they're like, pretty socially acceptable. My guess is that musk wasn't entirely supportive of it before, or just wasn't very outspoken about it, or that it was actually a much longer more gradual change than it feels like.

Also let's be honest, if someone offered either one of us a billion dollars for saying that we hate gay people, we'd take the money and run.
