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.
This is becoming a meme.
Used by the left to attack Musk. Used by the right to praise him.
The left and the right, the only two kinds of people in the world. Two homogeneous groups, two hive minds
God I hate those labels
Nope. It is the far right gaining immense amount of power while both moderate right, left and "extreme left" are yelling at the terrorists (far right) wanting to crash the airplanes in the towers.
Be aware that if you lean in the far right, you risk going down with the terrorists while the "osama bin laden" of this story (and to be clear, I mean Elon) will be hidden behind the safety of his bunker.
Or if you like anime analogy (and spoilers of boku no hero academy): spoiler
It is like trying to get favors from all for one in the hopes that he won't fuck over your country (and the anime is explicit in saying that it isn a matter of if. Only when.)
How would you describe yourself? Labels are useful
"the left" and "the right" are very US-centric IMO. Here in Sweden I'm somewhere in the center, leaning slightly to the right. In the US I'm guessing that'd be left of the far left.
Colour me surprised, a "no labels" guy who calls himself centrist-right. Fucking laughable.
Depends on the day... Some of us don't subscribe to a single political ideology because we haven't found one that we've found to be solid enough that we're willing to rally around it. Maybe that's because that ideology does not/cannot exist. I don't know...
I'm just speaking for myself, I guess.
OK, then tell me some of your core principles
Nah I'm good, thanks.
This was my own reaction.
