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.

The rest of it is just too ghoulish to even engage with, but why the fuck is Musk so obsessed with the letter X?

[–] expatriado@lemmy.world 100 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

looks the closest to the swastika

[–] Wytch@lemmy.zip 59 points 2 weeks ago (6 children)

You're not wrong. Besides having a vague visual similarity, the character also carries its own symbolic association. In English, "X" is mystery, and the unknown. It's a signature, or a mark. Thirty years ago, it was used frequently in marketing to connect with "eXtreme" sports culture.

Musk thinks it's the coolest letter because he's a child.

It also just happens to be 88 in the ascii table. Could be a coincidence... but none of these fuckers deserve the benefit of the doubt at this point.

How inciteful (sic)!

He wanted to call Paycom something X. He has been obsessed with it for awhile.

[–] Hjalamanger@feddit.nu 10 points 2 weeks ago

Indeed one of the companies who became PayPal was called x.com

[–] wirebeads@lemmy.ca 71 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (2 children)

He’s such a fucking piece of shit! Words cannot describe how I wish very much that he ends up dead every day. He’s a disgrace to the human race.

All this wealth he could be using to help humanity and this is his angle; To put down people who aren’t straight white fascist nazis.

Fuck F’Elon Musk.

I'm so glad this can be said on this platform.

When they see children as the means to an end, it's easy for them to be inhumanly low

[–] BetaBlake@lemmy.world 16 points 2 weeks ago

He is a full blown actual sociopath, he doesn't care about anyone else but himself

Elon's Children

  • Vivian (20, f, IVF)
  • Griffin (20, m, IVF)
  • Kai (~19, m, IVF)
  • Saxon (~19, m, IVF)
  • Damian (~19, m, IVF)
  • X AE A-XII (5, m)
  • Exa Dark Sideræl (3, f)
  • Strider (3, m)
  • Azure (3, m)
  • Techno Mechanicus (2, m)
  • Arcadia (~1, ?)
  • ?? (a few months, ?)
  • Seldon Lycurgus (?, m)

His first girl (not counting Vivian) was born in approx 2022. He has 14 kids, and they're almost all male. This isn't coincidence, especially since most of the early children were the result of IVF, where it's possible to select the sex. This is part of why he's so angry. He only wanted male children, he paid for male children, and one of his male children had the nerve to not be male in defiance of his wishes.

[–] Drivebyhaiku@lemmy.world 17 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Why does his naming conventions feel like he's populating a Warhammer 40k fanfic? At first I was like "Well Vivian sounds normal" and then I remembered that she chose that name and her dead name (which fucking gross Elon posted) definitely fits the 40k paradigm.

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I would bet that the names he chose, at least the ones that aren't "X" in some way (Xavier, Exa, X AE whatever) are probably white supremacist adjacent in some way, "Saxon" being an obvious one.

[–] Drivebyhaiku@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

X could still be white Supremacy-esque. X in ASCII tables is 88 and 88 is a NeoNazi dogwhistle.

"Saxon" also has an x in it. "Kai" is pronounced like the Greek letter chi (X). Dude's obsessed.

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Sigh, I should have guessed.

I wonder if he'd hate Vivian less if she'd chosen a name like Xena or Roxanne.

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 6 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Maybe more, since that's HIS letter!

Yep, he bought her. She's his purchased property and she's not doing what he paid for. I'm so fucking angry about this

[–] glowing_hans@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

A bit off-topic: In a darwinistic sense selecting only male offspring via in-vitro-fertilization is a bad strategy (by Elon). Females are more likely to propagate their genes than males on average, but Musk does not care?

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 weeks ago

That's a bit like saying "It's illogical for Herr Hitler to mistreat the jews. If what he really cares about is the German People, surely that aim is best served by retaining expertise where it is available."

Imagine a complete and totally irredeemable asshole that also never matured past age 13 and you have imagined Elon Musk.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 weeks ago

I was thinking of Trump first and foremost, but yeah Musk also fits that bill.

[–] sloppychops@lemmy.ca 25 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Fucking hell. That tweet is so cruel. I hope one day he comes back from the dark place he currently finds himself and looks back on this episode with shame.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

He won't. I've been following this asshole for well over half a decade now... He doesn't care about anyone but himself. He goes out of his way constantly to make things worse for "the helpers" Mr. Rogers' mother told us to look for (e.g. one of the heroes that saved all of those kids many years back that Elon baslessly labeled a "pedo" for literally no good reason.)

[–] sloppychops@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 weeks ago

That whole pedo thing was so fucking weird.

If the woke mind is a virus

How is he immune?

[–] frazw@lemmy.world 23 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The implication is the he and other "real men" I.e hate spewing bigots, have a strong "immune system" but the rest of us are weak.

It's another way they seek to feel superior to us peasants.

Nice for Vivian to could hold a distance from that monster and avoid personality issues. She seems clear and strong in her mind.

Can't say the same for the meat shield. He's probably gonna become an asshole like his father.

[–] 5in1k@lemm.ee 21 points 2 weeks ago

Elon is literally the character in 12 Angry Men that’s angry at their child and is lashing out. Billionaires are to powerful, this is ridiculous.

All these people "owning" Elon while paying him for blue checks. This is what fake opposition looks like.

He gives them out for free often, a significant portion of the blue checks you see aren't people actually paying for them.

[–] NauticalNoodle@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 weeks ago

Vivian is a lovely name!

[–] rosco385@lemm.ee 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

But he's kind of right, isn't he? Xavier Musk did die, and Vivian Wilson was born.

Is Elon a pro-trans activist and his recent slide to the far-right has just been a meticulously orchestrated plan to get him embedded in the Trump White House?... probably not, more likely it was the ketamine talking.
