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.

Nothing says liberty like the Republican party, where you can't be yourself, love who you love or have control over your own body.

Simping hard for the guy who will give him a tax break that he absolutely doesn't need.

[–] [email protected] 43 points 1 week ago (1 children)

My feeling is he's looking to avoid future legal troubles and who is best to make those go away...

Oh look he has his little cowboy belt buckle. He’s a real cowboy now!

What a fucking cunt.

Elon: “I have a dad now!”

Trump: “Somebody call security on this freak!”

Edit: Maybe Trump is downplaying his weirdness by using Elon as a sideshow freak.

[–] [email protected] 53 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Is that really Elon?? What the fuck happened?

[–] [email protected] 50 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Getting richer and more fascist and wanting taxbreaks. How or why? IDK, probably always been this way.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 week ago (4 children)

I meant the way he looks. The last picture I saw of him didn't look anywhere near this rough

He moved to Texas and is now wearing a big fucking belt buckle. He is not a serious person. If I put everything I know about the guy out of my mind, I can almost feel bad for him. Richest dude in the world and he’s desperate for his neighbors approval and to fit in. Then I remember he’s a weird piece of shit and find joy in the fact that his children hate him.

His commitment to the dark side of the Force has corrupted his body and mind.

The media only seem to post pictures of him from 10 years ago.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

lol how are you surprised at this. Not like he’s smart or something 😂

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He has enough money not to look like absolute dog shit

Trump: "Jump!"
Musk: "How high?"
Trump: "Get as high as you can!"
Musk: "I am already as high as I can, I wanted to know how high I should jump!"

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Sadly, I think it's Musk doing the commanding. Knowing as much as I do about Musk's philosophy, that's not a good thing. If Trump wasn't fascist enough, Musk certainly isn't going to help.

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I have no doubt they are empowering each other in a sick feedback loop.

I had a friend that was always into guns but was normal about it. Then he started hanging out with this other gun guy. Within a couple years they were both psycho gun nuts. He started sleeping with a loaded the gun under his pillow. Even though he had a five year old son. To quote "He isn't strong enough to cycle the slide so it's ok ..."

I noped out of the friendship after that.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago (4 children)

One my old friends became a cop. He would leave his service Glock in it's holster on his belt, hanging from his computer chair. While his then 7 year old daughter and 9 year old son ran wild, with no supervision.

"They know not to touch it."

Elon Musk is what happens when that middle school kid that says shit like "How fortuitous" gets money.

[–] [email protected] 39 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

is that old lesbian growing a beard?

who the fuck is that?

edit: just saw where I am. Jesus, he's really let himself go...

"... He is right behind me isn't he?"

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Aww, he let that mentally challenged man in the MAGA hat jump on the stage.

Elon look so stupid.

This is so weird... Real reminds me of Theresa May's dancing on stage in the UK.

Is that the new single-use Tezla Bullet Shield? I like it.

elon is the beta-est cuck of all time

I'm scared to ask for context. I know who they are, but....

Yesterday, Trump had a rally at the place he got shot.

He brought out Elon to make a speech, and Elon came out jumping like in OP and gave a speech a child would come up with. Dude is literally a 12 year old in a 50 year old body. Also:

People did leave early

The funniest possible thing didn't happen.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 week ago (2 children)

What would the funniest thing be? Another shooter and bleeding from the other ear?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 week ago (7 children)

This kind of dedication and extasy can cause stigmas like random bleeding on the ear. No need guns anymore just faith.

They seem to honestly believe that Musk will get human beings to Mars before the end of Trump's next term (under the assumption he has one).

I'm sorry. This won't happen in Trump's next term (assuming he has one). This won't happen in my lifetime. This won't happen in the lifetime of anybody currently over the age of 20.

MAYBE someone who was born today will see human beings land on Mars.

MAYBE the grandchildren of someone born today will see human beings build something semi-permanent on Mars.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 week ago (7 children)

I mean the technical hurdles aren't insurmountable. But we lack the political will power to put resources needed into it.

It would take 60s moon landing level of commitment for 10-15 years to do any sooner.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's a stupid idea, and a massive waste of resources that could be used here. There are multiple articles from real scientific sites, and YouTube videos from real scientists why it's a stupid idea.

You are mistakenly assuming the human being travelling to Mars will still be living.
