Breitbart has zero credibility. I thought we'd all knew better than to share Breitbart links.

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.

Better watch out Elon, it looks like Steve is ready to play some Mario Bros.
It's hilarious to see people on the far right using leftist talking points to discredit the new techbrocratic right.
But holy fuck the Overton window in the US is so fucked we're running out of ways to describe the right side.
Heartbreaking: The worst person you know just made a really great point.
Mmm. It's more like how during the American Civil War some people sided with the Union because they didn't want black people in the country at all and that couldn't happen with slavery.
His point and motivations are Nazi shit and never anything else.
Keep the stooge he can control in office vs the one he can’t.
That’s all it is.
Anything? Call me, I have a couple ideas
It truly is weird timeline where I'd share any of his statements in a positive light.
Bannon went on to accuse Musk of being self-serving, insisting that his “sole objective is to become a trillionaire.”
“What’s not positive,” he added, “is when all of a sudden he tries to put his half-baked ideas which are really about the implementation of techno-feudalism on a global scale. I don’t support that and we’ll fight it.”
this could be the most insane path to class consciousness imaginable. it would be incredible if all of elon musks political projects end up culminating in the working class developing class solidarity and mobilizing against the ruling class. especially when he could have just done nothing and still been a hundred billionaire.
I hope they don't manage to build killer robot police before the class emancipation starts. They need us, we don't need them... never forget this fact!
Bruh going full 1950s women’s hairdo
Also we’ve reached multi-tiered nazi levels in the GOP. The bar keeps getting lower and lower
We're at the place where Bannon is the adult in the room. Let that sink in.
I'm always stunned by how much he's let himself go since this picture was taken. These last few years have been rough on his body. I hope it gives him a stroke or something
Look at trump. He's clearly got a lot more damage he can do to his body and still keep fucking up the world.
Yeah. That’s what the best medical care in the world will do for you :(
The MAGAsphere truly is, as British comedian Paul Merton called it, a cavalcade of bozos.
Can we build a Coliseum like Rome has for events like this fight?
It would see the return of a particularly cruel sport, so yes.
The question is: "How many millions would Bannon be willing and able to pay to Trump?".
What is this timeline where I'm rooting for Steve Bannon?
Don't. He's just mad he got replaced by Musk.
Correct as you are, I'd be ~~more happy~~ less upset to see a Bannon-Trump WH than a Musk-Trump one. Even Bernie agrees with Steve Bannon on H-1B visas.
They're hyaenas at each others' throats. The only thing to root for is that they tear each other to pieces.
What is this timeline where I’m rooting for Steve Bannon?
Bannon just has his own brand of hate. We do not with with either a President Musk or Bannon victory. We, Americans, lose with either controlling vice president trump's strings.
We're living in the Weaselverse. Nothing makes sense any more.
Weaselverse?!
I blame GMan.
Finally a sensible explanation
The correct answer when you find one of these dickheads making a good point is "fuck off to hell"
fight assholes, fight!
It's a funny old world where that elderly bag lady is actually making any sense.
See also: Trouble in Trumpworld over H-1B visas makes for strange bedfellows:
Steve Bannon, one of the architects of Trumpism, is one the most influential voices on the right. Bernie Sanders, the veteran US senator from Vermont, is among the leading figures on the progressive left. In these divided times, they have found common ground.
...
Bannon, who still holds significant sway over Trump’s Make America Great Again (Maga) movement, has received support – albeit indirectly – from Sanders, who issued a lengthy critique of the H-1B status quo last week.
“Elon Musk is wrong,” the senator wrote. “The main function of the H-1B visa program is not to hire ‘the best and the brightest’, but rather to replace good-paying American jobs with low-wage indentured servants from abroad. The cheaper the labor they hire, the more money the billionaires make.”
I think everyone wants Elon Musk to stfu. Someone should start a petition “stfu Elon” and see how many signatures it gets. I’m willing to bet it would be in the hundreds of millions.
He needs to go to Mars already. And it's a one-way trip, thank god.
With an oxygen tank running on empty.
Be the someone yourself, do not wait for someone else.
