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.

Honestly it was a bit weird everyone on social saying Netflix was about to die. They would spend millions on market research. Thousands of man hours, and the usage data to support it.
It's pretty arrogant to conclude that you know better.
I don't really mean you specifically. This happens often with large companies. Like people thinking reddit would die.
Twitter is a special case though IMO. It was shit to start with, and it's become aggressively partisan.
Yep. Because Twitter is now a far-right social media. Just like Gab and Truth Social. I don't know why so many people don't get that.
Just on the face of it, why would Netflix even have been concerned that this change would hurt their bottom line? The bulk of the people that the change pissed off weren't paying for the service to start with!
it seems as though a lot of people were cancelling their subscriptions on the basis that it was a dramatic over-reach from netflix, and naively assumed that the all of netflix' users were the same.
