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.

Idk how ultra-wealthy people like this shitass don't understand that being taxed is the best outcome they can hope for. The alternative is people will eventually get desperate enough that they'll drag the rich cunts out of their houses and beat them to death in the streets.

Which uh, already happened before and i wouldn't be surprised if it happened again in more modern times

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 16 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Oh they all know it happened before. The rich simply don't think it'll happen again.

*to them

It's the reason they're buying islands and building bunkers.

And think we can't swim or take over a yacht.

They forget we build the boats and planes and bunkers in the first place..

And the cement trucks, excavators, and battering rams. :)

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

They will hire someone to guard their bunker and a guard will block their vents, i am 90% sure that something like this would happen

[–] BlaestEgnen@feddit.dk 1 points 2 weeks ago

Or we'll just feed them fake news to their bunker, legally claim them dead and hand their wealth over to the people

Yellow Turbans. Jacquerie. Bastille Day. To name three examples from the top of my head.

It's a lot rarer than reddit/lemmy pretends it is. Historically it was more common for the rich to pay poor people to kill other poor people when they got uppity. Slave and peasant results fail like 95% of the time.
