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.

Owners say they are noticing orange stains on the stainless steel panels of their new Cybertrucks.

Others are in favor of their Cybertrucks developing orange stains, saying that they’re looking forward to the patina the stainless steel may develop.

LOL - that's some straight up 🤡 shit.

When does the Cybertruck: limited COR-TEN® Steel edition come out?

[–] elbucho@lemmy.world 15 points 7 months ago

I'm thinking that would actually appeal to some folks as a Mad Max sort of aesthetic.

After the Cybertruck aluminum and cardboard edition. For that derelique fashion

Hey Cybertruck, you can derelique my balls!

Rust can look great!

I doubt these will age well at all though

I fucking love patina on vehicles so much. This is definitely clown shit but point me towards a vehicle with copper panels and you can take all my money.

Ooh, that sounds hot as hell.

Make it yourself!

Maybe rivet pennies like scalemail on an existing car

My Metalbird is developing a patina that looks a lot like rust. Apparently that's intentional and temporary but we'll see. I only paid $60 not $100,000 so I'm not as upset as I imagine these people are.
