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.

Maybe, it'd have to be rooted in one of the earlier parts of the brain though, which aren't quite as good with memories. They tend to manifest as feelings and triggers though, like a phobia (at least, that's the hypothesis, you can't exactly test that by torturing babies). Which, makes sense to me, since the amygdala is pretty good to go at that age, lol.

That's not to say it's impossible (the brain is very plastic), just that the more dedicated parts for that aren't there and your understanding of the world isn't good enough to make sense of it. In your case, you wouldn't need the latter to at least understand the feelings at the time, though. I for instance have a pretty sure memory of getting wiped out by someone in a swing in preschool, though I can't even remember visiting Disneyland in 2nd grade lol.

I mostly only bring it up because my sister swears she has district memory at that age and I know she's having reconstructive memory bias to change her memories to better reflect her current world view. I was there, after all, and it's a pet peeve of mine ever since! Lol
