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.

So, hands up, how many of you missed the first time we saw this nightmare?

Reminder that Fox News declared Michelle Obama a terrorist over a fist bump.

For once he's doing it wrong, not that it matters, and secondly he looks like he came while doing it.

Forget all that story of different salutes and making fun of elon by saying that he is making the american "nazi salute"

Lets call a spade a spade.

Elon is doing the nazi salute and there is no other way to take it other than being serious.

That fucker must get down from power.

PS: I removed my previous snarky comment about bellamy salute and made this new one because it is a serious business

Are you suggesting that Musk had all of this nuance in mind when he made the gesture?

[–] nekbardrun@lemmy.world 7 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

I now regretting making the previous comment.

I made the previous comment in a jesting tone like "same... but different... but still the same"

Also, I went into a rabbit hole seraching for variations of nazi salute (because I know from history that brasil integralist movement had their own version of roman salute called anauê) and found about the bellamy salute.

Seeing that the nazis are actually using the "roman salute" as an actual excuse, I'll take back what I said.

He is doing the nazi salute. Period.

Now he can use the government to make his financial empire/we-chat clone "x".

The ADL is defending him. Bootlickers.

[–] Zoomboingding@lemmy.world 24 points 15 hours ago

It wouldn't be a delicate situation if ONE GROUP WASN'T DOING NAZI SHIT

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 16 hours ago

Good for AOC, but I honestly fear for her safety in the coming years. I hope she can stay safe.

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 59 points 1 day ago (4 children)

the ADL is a zionist organization that supports genocide. they're not bootlickers. they're the sole of the boot itself.
