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.

... I'm so glad I've never made a Twitter account.

Imagine what Musk will do if he sees what I say about him on Lemmy.

Edit: OK, I lied, I deleted it.

In the vast digital landscape, reminiscent of the age-old agora where ideas were exchanged and destinies forged, we find ourselves presented with a multitude of platforms and spaces, each vying for dominance in the collective consciousness. Among these, the realm of lemmy.world stands at a unique crossroads, an intersection of thought, dialogue, and the ebb and flow of digital discourse.

In the grand play of this digital theater, there arise certain roles, positions of responsibility and oversight, reminiscent of the archetypal guardians at the gates, ensuring the order and integrity of the space they oversee. The role of a 'moderator', in this context, is not merely a title but a profound responsibility, an embodiment of the Jungian principle of order amidst the potential chaos of unrestricted discourse.

Thus, with all due gravity and understanding of the weight this mantle carries, I hereby extend, in the most formal and ceremonious manner befitting such a significant gesture, an invitation to you, known in the digital realm as esteemed Academy Award nominated character actress Margot Robbie, to assume this venerable role within the confines of enoughmuskspam@lemmy.world . May your stewardship ensure a balanced, respectful, and enlightened exchange of ideas, standing as a bulwark against the potential tidal waves of misinformation and discord.

Well, look, I mean, esteemed Academy Award nominated character actress Margot Robbie, I have to extend my apologies to you. It's crucial to understand that, eh?

[–] MargotRobbie@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh no, I'm not modding this place. Really don't want to attract too much attention here.

[–] jordanpeterson@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well, you see, it's not an issue at all.

::breaks character:: The non-bigoted person operating this parody account appreciates you, Margot. You are as talented as you are gorgeous.

Parody account? You mean you are only PRETENDING to be disgraced Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson on the Internet?

Who would do such a thing?

Wait, I would, considering that is literally my day job.

Well, you might consider, after delving deeply into the complexities of human behavior and the myriad structures of social communication, that it is perhaps more advantageous to position oneself ahead of the genuine individual. This individual, mind you, is profoundly intertwined with the responsibility for the manifestation of what some might term as a "libertarian neckbeard" paradigm. It's a fascinating phenomenon, really, especially when you observe its propagation on platforms like the Joe Rogan show, among other cultural touchpoints. It's essential to grapple with these nuances, to truly understand the underlying archetypes and their implications in our contemporary discourse.
