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 wish they would make like generic vehicles. Like, basic shit. Give me that nokia brick vehicle that I can drive forever and is dead simple to work on.

You mean a Toyota Corolla?

Too bad it's gotten huge like every other car. I had an '86 Corolla and it was a good 25% smaller than the Corolla now. It was a really great car though.

Miatas are not much bigger.

I'm 100% with you though. Even mini coopers are bigger than sedans used to be.

Or nissan leaf, for electric, or Toyota prius phev, for phev

Unfortunately most of those are not dead simple to work on.

Only the best selling car ever :)

I didn't know that it beat out the Beetle. Neat!

Soviets did that, they had a few types of vehicles that were cheap to make and that ran forever. some likely still running now. Really great stuff. ( I'm not a tankie I just like Soviet history.)

You mean the one without a crumple zone that is deadly to any pedestrian?

I rather want one that is safe for humans than for the car itself.
