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.

where does he even get that idea? i never heard people refer to Elon as homeless.

Not sure about now, but there was a time period where he owned no properties and lived in the houses of friends. Staying in someone's fourth home is not a hardship, but technically he didn't have a home.

I don't believe it, and even if it's true it wasn't out of necessity. he probably found it convenient to mooch off people like he always does one way or another as a lifelong parasite. he was born into immense wealth. literally the only thing he's ever done is buy companies. that's his entire career.

Not sure what you mean.

Edit: I'm dumb. The joke is that Elon is a drug addict. Hit me a few minutes later.

It's a joke. He's implying that Elon is a violent drug addict with severe mental illness. Which is, of course, true.

Thanks. Got it just in time to edit my comment and then see your reply. I'm a dummy.
