Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Now he is crying over tariffs after losing EU market.
Look at his smug stupid face.
I despise him so much.
Two comments:
-
If you and Elon Musk are playing bad-cop-good-cop, how shitty of a person do you have to be for Musk to play the good cop?
-
This sound a lot like Russia saying they want peace. You know the argument that"if Ukraine just gave up their territory, government and freedom there would be no war, it's their fault!". Same here, if Europe removed all their social security and pesky regulations so that US companies could do everything they wanted there would be no tariffs!
After the report the other day that Trump said Musk would soon be gone, with Musk responding that that was fake news, I was expecting Trump to be playing the good cop.
Dude is gonna get whacked by a mentally ill vet he got fired. Calling it. I know so many mentally ill vets that could only work for the government. Those people won’t find jobs and they will blame Elon. Calling it.
Oh god you're right. Research into lone actor grievance fuelled violence shows that people who are more likely to do it include unemployed people with MH issues and access to firearms. Musk inspires a lot of hatred and the news is saturated with him, someone already shot at Trump... it's gonna happen.
Musk wears a kevlar vest and a kid of his everywhere he goes, you either Chris Kyle him or you get left with a handful of dust and death sentence if you get caught.
Naa this timeline is dumb they'll just say its gods plan and blame atheist gay vegans. I want to be wrong so bad.
You might be onto something with gay vegans. The democratic party leadership has been flailing around looking for a cause they can rally around without solving any problems for anyone.
Go fuck yourself, elmo
Confiscate his stolen wealth for social security and deport him back to South Africa!
Fuck off Musk
Oh, nice, perhaps he should kill himself.
Triple distilled and smooth as silk.
money and that will cause tesla to drop. Which will cause investors to sell and it’s a spiral un
he finally stopped taking ketamine for the first time in months.
Someone doesn't want tesla stock to hit $114/share.
What happens if it does?
He took loans against his tesla stock to buy Twitter. If the value of that stock gets low, The banks or whoever will ask for their money. They could also sell the stock to try and recuperate some of the money and that will cause tesla to drop. Which will cause investors to sell and it's a spiral until hopefully he's broke. Thata why hes crying about the protests, telling his workers not to sell their stock, and having trump and his propagandists say support the asshole buy a truck!
His net worth is more in space x than Tesla
How is this affected by him selling X to his AI company? I know banks don't like letting you off the hook, but I also know banks do things differently for rich people. I figured that was the reason he did it in the first place.
according to Reuters , he sold it for 33 billion with 12 billion in debt. So 45 billion total, which is conveniently 1 billion more than what he paid originally. It also says that the banks that lent him 13 billion were finally able to sell. I wonder if the Saudis bought it.
This is something I was curious about. I figured there was some kind of financial trickery happening with that deal.
Elon might get fired
Can he also be fired from SpaceX too?
And StarLink!
Starlink is part of SpaceX
I’ll buy at $14.
Alternative headline: Musk pretends to be critical of policies he's endorsed and supportive of countries he actively interferes in the elections of
They’ll still hate Tesla almost as much as they hate you, Elon. They won’t suddenly start trusting Xitter or Starlink, either. Just shut up and go away.
He said this in the far right political party of Salvini, current rival of the far right prime minister Meloni. Weird I thought they were loving each other, Did Meloni push him back?
Well it's a little late for that now.
Putin is not gonna be pleased, how dare his muppet not follow his word! An emergency meeting between Muppet #1-3 and Putin is in order. On Signal, in a group with Assange.
The problem is that Trump doesn't understand what "tariffs" are, and thinks that a trade imbalance is somehow a tariff. Trying to comply would be like Mattingly trying to trim his sideburns.
Yeah the US has a population 350 million which is one of the highest in the world. There are going to be trade imbalances because we will be consuming more stuff than other countries with much lower populations.
Which is roughly what we had before he rode Dirty Diaper Donny into the White House.
Nahh. It'd be better if Europe placed higher tariffs especially on Musk owned companies. Ban them from government contracts
just sanction musk and his companies.
I'm calling him Enron from now on.
Well, I want ice cream and a pony. Maybe two ponies.
I'll come on pony rides with you
LOL
Sure, let's start negotiations, you drop the tariffs while they're ongoing.
It will never work because the US will want to slash labor unions and Europe wants better product standards, but we can call his bluff.
