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.

You really have to wonder what’s going on behind the scenes here. Tim knows, the majority of his employees know, that Twitter is a wasteland and not worth spending money on. So why the wishy washy response? Did someone previously sign a contract that’s difficult to get out of or something? Because Apple certainly isn’t gaining anything by advertising on X.
I suppose that by shitting in them publicly he hopes to get others to question the value and so force them to lower their prices - which in turn may give leverage to negotiate better rates on other platforms. That is just my imagination in a nth dimensional chess move thing.
If they simply backed out it would be one article. If they tease for a year its a series of articles.
