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.

The full quote is even worse.
So basically he's saying - "I never harm anyone...the left only hates me because I'm a deadly threat to them (and that thing I made up to dismiss everything they say)"
Also, just wanna point out he's definitely killed/is killing people.
I'm so glad that I was taught how to diagram sentences in middle school because when I see something like this I immediately strip it down to it's most basic structure. "I am a threat to humans."
teenagers: "Why do we ever need this?"
teachers: "To take down fascism"
Self admitted deadly threat to humans. Got it.
This guy is LARPing Hitler in real time at this point.
He's literally a child of apartheid. He was born to be evil.
he could have made different choices, he simply didn't.
Usually happens when you come from a lineage of rot.
Some of the whites under apartheid went on to be good people. We just lost an amazing one the other day.
I know he had an evil family but it's Musk's choice to lean into it.
I don't think "some" is a strong endorsement of whites under apartheid.
Not trying to "endorse" whites under apartheid. I literally protested it and participated in the boycott of them.
Ethnicity isn't what makes people evil. Even if you are born into an evil society it's what you choose to do about that which determines if you are evil.
Targeting people because of their race instead of who they are and what they do - that WAS Apartheid. It's lazy thinking at best and at worst it leads to all the same discrimination and other evil shit we are up against.
I never said ethnicity made people evil, the fuck you on about. I'm saying his family were racist pieces of shit who profited from racist institutions, and now he's a racist piece of shit who profits from racist institutions. This ain't rocket science.
Well I agree with all that.
Cool, glad we agree on the important shit. 😁
God I wish I was
This in combination with the retweet about "Hitler didn't kill millions" is really frightening!
