So what to call him now, Muskler? Muskolini?

Which is funny but in Greek, this sounds exactly like 'Hitler'

[-] De_Narm@lemmy.world 20 points 2 months ago

I see this as a feature, not a bug.

[-] CosmoNova@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

That's what some call the dictator of China already. I like Muskolini.

[-] De_Narm@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

The man fought so much against Pooh, I won't adress him with anything else. But he's certainly a Hitler.

Muskolini is good, too. However, it almost gives him some credit. Unlike Mussolini, who was the first proper fascist leader, Musk never 'invented' anything. Hitler just took the concept and got more famous with it, just like Musk did with Tesla.

It sounds stupid. It fits prefectly.

There was a time when Americans fought Nazis. Maybe Americans need to do that again, instead of watching this play out.

[-] Gingerlegs@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

This is what baffles me.

Well, the first time they spent years watching the Nazis play out and profiting from the war by selling munitions and equipment to both sides before actually joining it. I'm not sure Japan is in the same place to get them moving into fight mode .. maybe North Korea, Russia or China though? The same kinda sanctions are in place.

And then afterwards they took the most lucrative and talented Nazis to the USA where they could work for the government and industry. I guess the anti-Nazi stance of the USA has always been relatively weak except in that one moment when they were forced to oppose it.

We have to find whatever name bothers him the most, then call him that exclusively and repeatedly.

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.
