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.

It's true. I read it on Facebook

I still find it amazing that everyone heard that story before the internet had really taken off for most people.

I have a theory on this.

Drug dealers.

With the stuff traveling across the country and the amount of wild shit that comes out of your mouth when you're high, I can imagine it spreading around due to pot distribution

Excellent theory

He would need to have all his ribs removed to get to that toothpick.

Classic, using the same methods they used against dark metal music in the 90s!

Isn't it wild that was the craziest shit we could come up with back then? Or that Britney swallowed so much cum she had to get her stomach pumped?

I heard that was Gwen Stefani

[–] Zier@fedia.io 4 points 1 day ago

I heard it was Rod Stewart. There was no internet back then.
