This dude is taking pettiness to strange new places.

“Xitter,” pronounced “Shitter”

[-] MalReynolds@slrpnk.net 15 points 2 years ago

Xitter ! love it, now lexicon

Usage: Can't wait to watch Xitter (pronounced Zit - ter) pop after Musk wrecks the train.

[-] dojan@lemmy.world 33 points 2 years ago

I’ve always read X as a “sh” adjacent sound so Xitter basically reads like “shitter” to me.

this is the way

Haha. Nah, it’s because of Chinese.

[-] anguo@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago

So it's probably more specific to "xi", and not x by itself ;)

[-] PlasmaDistortion@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Shitter is probably the best name for it I have heard so far.

He is turning himself into a comical evil villain. Next he’ll be explicitly his evil plan to 007.

[-] Taleya@aussie.zone 13 points 2 years ago

Musk looks more and more unhinged in each successive pic i see of him. Countdown to OD?

[-] VelvetStorm@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Christ we can only hope.

[-] MisterD@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 years ago

It's as if he's censoring them.

[-] BillyTheSkidMark@lemm.ee 7 points 2 years ago

Nooo, he wouldn't do that! He's a free speech absolutist remember?

[-] CeruleanRuin@lemmings.world 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yikes, that thumbnail. Musk is literally a neckbeard now? He must be leaning into it.

[-] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

My actual only source of musk spam is this fucking community and I'm gonna do my part by blocking it

[-] Gamey@feddit.de 4 points 2 years ago

It's literally kept in this community so people can easily block it...

[-] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Is that the actual purpose? I genuinely assumed it was just an incredible irony

[-] Gamey@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago

It doesn't always work but yea, people all over Lemmy started to complain about all the posts covering Twitter and Reddit so many of them are in dedicated communities now. I actually like to watch Musk fuck up so unbelivably every few days but others don't and that's a good compromise if you ask me!

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.
