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.

MODERATORS
 

As of June 25, 55.1 percent of Americans viewed Elon Musk unfavorably, while 37 percent had a favorable opinion—a sharp shift from early 2024, when the numbers were roughly even, according to Silver Bulletin.

"Musk is still popular among Republicans, but he's less popular than he used to be and less popular than other Republican figures," elections analyst Eli McKown-Dawson wrote.

How is this possible? I'm convinced you can do the worst shit imaginable and 30% of people will still support it, no matter what.

He killed his Dem fans by going MAGA. Then, killed MAGA fans going against their orange god. All-around idiot that got lucky investments with daddy's money.

Jump in one of those exploding rockets, Elon. It surely won't blow this time.

All he has now is hopefully getting Russian fans

I mean, him Titan CEO'ing himself on the way to Mars as a showcase that his tech is safe, is well within plausibility

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 3 hours ago

I doubt he would drive his own teslas

I don't know, the stream where his entire goal was to prove how good starlink was for gaming where he immediately blamed all his deaths on poor connection quality, sort of implies he has trouble putting his products before his ego.

And while he is an expert at deluding himself, I think we have already passed the point where even he could be convinced his rockets were safe.

Solid chance he does the same thing in one of his robotaxis

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

He isn't taking his own robo taxis.

Does he even drive a tesla?

[–] entropicdrift@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 hour ago

He does. He required their charging port to be where they are due to the layout of his garage at the time when they designed the Model S

No way dude goes himself. No way.

Being a sack of hot garbage will do that to your popularity.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 3 hours ago

He's mostly ketamine, and various drugs.

[–] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 18 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

He can always crawl back into his k-hole. Good riddance.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 3 points 3 hours ago

He's probably too tolerant to ketamine now.

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 5 hours ago

The big doughey lump made people mad at him. He deserves it. Fuck off, chud.

Awesome strategy, though. First, piss off the sane people, then piss off the crazy people.

[–] Novamdomum@fedia.io 6 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

It's all just Woody Harrelson crying gif to him though.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 hours ago

Since the scene originally took place in a zombie apocalypse where money was worthless, unironically this. He's clearly unhappy and his money does nothing to change that. Like many narcissists, he desperately wants to be liked.
