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.

"Being autistic" is not license to be a fucking asshole Nazi.

No but it can help direct you down that pipeline if you're unlucky enough to not get the proper support.

That's what originally happened with me until I got out of high school and stopped having negative experiences on an almost daily basis.

Couple more years of it and I probably wouldn't have been able to pull out of it so easily.

I mean, any angry outsider could potentially go down a dark path.

He also LARPs as his own son complaining about his mother, which is definitely also weird.

Not sure he's a "daddy's boy". Him and his father hate each other, supposedly because they both wanted to marry their adopted daughter/sister. And yes, the father did marry his adopted daughter.

I fucking hate when psychopaths use unrelated neurodivergences as excuses, as if it somehow means they get carte blanche to act like an asshole. It actively undermines all the progress that has been made to remove the stigma from neurodivergent conditions of any variety.

He can’t solve self-driving (over 10 years later now) after saying “a couple of weeks” for a decade

You're ~~weird~~ an asshole because...

And here I just want autism as a convenient excuse to not indulge power trippers for their social feedback desires. Like, I'm not gonna be bothered until you're throwing hands my way. The job market wants me.
