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.

Does he wanna fight Zuck privately without recordings so he can claim he won no matter what? Or does he wanna sneak in a razor blade or something?

Either way, I think it's hilarious that these two are so desperate for attention while being universally hated that they're like "Wait, commoners! What if we killed each other? Would you like us then?"

Is Zuck really desperate for attention? Especially in comparison to Musk?

Zuck just cares about getting as much money as possible, disregarding who he will hurt in the process, but Musk is also that but he also is an attention whore on top of that

I mean, Zuckerberg has also been practising martial arts for a while now and has entered competitions. I don't think he's doing it for attention... Once you get the fighting bug, you want to compete more and more to push yourself to be better.

Fighting Elon will not be pushing Zuck to be better though. Elon is an older out of shape man without training. I think that's the reason Elon doesn't want it turned into a big event. Zuck takes this stuff seriously and I don't blame him for saying no unless it is an event.

Zuck is just calling his bluff. Takes one to know one and he knows Elon is just talking shit

"Wait, commoners! What if we killed each other? Would you like us then?"

I can't see it hurting....
