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.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

"re:" is a professional but maybe outdated way of responding to "regarding" something.

In musk's case here, who fucking knows, billionaires all use emails like shitty chat, and pedo billionaires all talk in code, so it could honestly be anything or even an automatic subject line fill.

I'm assuming it just means "regarding (the thing WINK WINK)"

Edit: usually it's typed something like this:

Subject: RE: birthday party
Body: make sure the dancers are only paid after they perform. Also, no peanuts, half of attendees are allergic.
