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.

Suicide is a choice. The only choice of how we die. I respect that. Sometimes, life isn't worth living.

That said, I hope that anyone contemplating it exhausts any, and every opportunity, to avoid it. But, it's their choice.

And that said said, I see this as a possibility for Musk. He's even more needy than Trump. When he got booed off the stage of a Chapelle concert he talked his way into coming on stage, his employees where concerned he was going to off himself for a week. That wounded his ego that bad.

A 54 year old man is so desperate for approval, and adulation, he attempts to pander to teenage gamers. And fails miserably. All he'd have to do is spend a fraction of his unlimited wealth to help the poor, even if it's just for attention, and not altruism. But no, he behaves as an entitled, narcissistic, psychopathic rich kid. With predictable results.

That's what happens when a child is raised in opulence. Entitlement, and privilege, and never learn humility like us peasants.
