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 use ChatGPT once a day or so. Yeah, it's damned good at simple facts, more than lemmy will ever admit. Yeah, it'll easily make shit up if there's no answer to be had.

We should have started teaching tech literacy and objective analysis 20-years ago. FFS, by 2000 I had figured out that, "If it sounds like bullshit, it likely is. Look more."

Also, after that post, I'm surprised this site hasn't taken you out back and done an ol' Yeller on ya. :)

I was told we weren't allowed to do that anymore

Of course you were told that.
