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’re right, let’s post it all over the news and tech communities for everyone to see, right?
You could make the argument that this community exists to fill a niche where post tags would work well - namely, Musk stuff can get posted here, general-subject comms can choose to ban it, and you - a strong independent user who don’t need no spam - can block it.
That’s literally the whole point of it. Block it. Stop complaining about people doing you a favor.
Should have left that shit on Reddit.
Well, OP literally crossposted this to regular subs tho...
Which is the point I was making, these stupid subs only make the problem they're complaining about worse
There's literally no point to them, they actively make the entire problem they're meant to solve.
I legitimately don't understand why you all don't get this.
Shouldn’t you be complaining in those other subs that you don’t want to see news related to Musk/Twitter in those subs? Why are you here complaining about posts about musk in a community that was created specifically to discuss musk?
There's something about this sub and needing stuff repeated over and over again...
