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.

I'm sure there's more to it, but this isn't a great start.

While Snyder herself has not made political contributions, during her presidency, In-N-Out Burger and affiliated entities have donated $275,000 to the California Republican Party and $750,000 to the Congressional Leadership Fund, a super PAC dedicated to electing Republicans to the U.S. House of Representatives.[35][36] The company has also donated $180,000 to Californians for Jobs and a Strong Economy, a Super PAC dedicated to electing moderate and pro-business Democrats to the U.S. Senate.[35]

In November 2021, Snyder had a phone call with Florida governor Ron DeSantis, during which DeSantis invited her to relocate In-N-Out's headquarters from Southern California to Florida or open a new distribution center in his state.[37] Snyder reportedly thanked DeSantis for the offer but declined.[38]

During the first half of 2025, Synder donated $2 million to MAGA Inc., a super PAC that supports Donald Trump.[39]

I mean, they fly the Gadsen flag over their HQ and distribution centers.

Ahhh, I've only been there once and it was years ago, that explains a lot.
