The depression for fElon is sinking in.. don’t stop making fun of him
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.
He has hurt plenty of people though.
People have DIED because his cars are shit & he lied about what they can actually do.
He didn't design, engineer, or build those. You give him too much credit. His input likely amounted to "make it cheaper and raise the price"
Arguably he made Tesla's autopilot shittier by removing LIDAR because it was too expensive.
He also promoted, and named it autopilot. Which could at least be fraud, and if you or I or any other non-billionaire sold something similarly misrepresented, we’d be liable for the deaths and fraud.
I'm speculating but it seems plausible to also make decisions like start selling the cars even though the engineers are saying they are not ready yet.
He's the one who sets company culture as CEO, so the "move fast and break things" that got that lady stuck in her car while she drowned is his fault, and it will get a whole lot more killed when they actually enable that autopilot of theirs on the cars.
ignore QC, thats why some of his regular tesla have problems.
