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 live in a swing state. Are we saying I could offer registered voters $20 for their signatures and turn a profit?

Assuming Elon actually pays, sure.

Totally unrelated fun fact: Twitter HQ moved because Elon refused to pay rent and got evicted.

I think it's drawn at porn/prostitution lines. You cant pay for a signature but you can pay someone to get signatures.

You said you can't pay for signatures, then how are autographs legal?

I think it's technically a drawing.
