Enough Musk Spam
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.

Not only spying, these cars are just like all other Chinese products.
Say "I don't know what I'm talking about" without using those words.
My Milwaukee tools were made in China and they are fantastic. Sure, some cheap chinese made stuff is crap but the higher end chinese products are every bit as good japanese or western made now.
Nearly a third of the world's manufacturing is done in China. That's good stuff and crap and everything in between. Chinesium exists because of engineering for a price point, and people are cheap.
This here exactly. There's shit products made in China. There's brilliant products made in China. It's just like everything else as per the old adage: YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!
If you only want to pay shit product prices, you get shit products. A variant of "play stupid games, win stupid prizes".
"What do you mean, Doc? All the best stuff is made in Japan."
